This is the recommended registry cleaner tool on the Kaspersky Forums

I was just about to buy it with the Platinum Package (free upgrades for life and can be used on up to 5 PCs that you own) but before hitting the buy button. I read this:

http://fileforum.betanews.com/review/987567453/1/view


There is a Myriad of bad reviews that are telling me this is a pile of junk

Can someone who has experience with it share some honest experience about it?
 
I did analyze and clean my registry and the entries seem to be fine / safe

But when I clicked on the File cleaner, it didn't delete 2 very important things and I am wondering how come as these are 100% safe to delete:

1- C: \Windows\SoftwareDistribution\Download (These are temporarily downloaded setup files for Windows update that are no longer required after installation), they were completely ignored by jv16

2- C: \$username$\AppData\Local\Temp (all the folders/files in this directory were ignored whereas with CCleaner they get deleted as they are all temp files, hmmmm
 
Registry cleaners = dont really do anything in the best case, worst case they can break something.

pretty much since win2k they have not been needed. the only time ive seen them work was on win95/win98
 
I asked about reg cleaners in general but read that this is the recommended registry cleaner when you want to uninstall Kaspersky Internet Security on the Kaspersky forums and thus asked again

does it bother you? this is a public and I can ask whatever I want

If you don't like it then get out
