Clear Your Gunk!

Microsoft WindowsLive OneCare
Came across an article in the Straits Times' Digital Life section on the recommended program downloads that will clear up lots... I mean lots of junk that reside in all parts of your harddisk.

What is great about it is that these are all free downloads.

Yes, free downloads are quite dangerous and very untrustworthy.

They harbour spyware, while some are malicious hiding identity-theft program, stealing your personal data, and some are just those darn embedded virus files that just make people's life hell when infected.

No, these download-ables are not malicious at all.

In fact these are from trusted sources that I swear by it. The most important of these are:

Anti-Virus Program: AVG Free Edition by Grisoft

Anti-Spyware Protection: Ad-aware by Lavasoft

Registry Cleaner Program: EasyCleaner by ToniArts

Those in the US are so fortunate to try out for free, and eventually fall in love with the ease of use and complete protection of WindowsLive OneCare. Subscribing it with a small annual fee of USD19.90 to protect your computer.


I downloaded it and tried it with great ease of use and great ease of mind that my PC was not vulnerable to either virus or spyware. Deleting unwanted junk was a button-press away.

Unfortunately, Microsoft has not extended its support worldwide yet and I had to uninstall it when it expired 90 days later. In replacement, the above free websites offer the programs for full protection for your computer free.

These are legitimate gunk removers.

No worries, I do not get commissions. I am using them and my PC almost flies like new again!
