Now I gots a question Chuck! Does this scandisk
option take 6 hours to run on a 20GB disk as does
the scandisk in Start/Programs/Accessories/System
Tools/scandisk?

Does not RegClean do the same thing? I run mine
at least daily and anytime I install or uninstall
a program or encounter any other problem during
the day, which is rare now days thankfully!

I have know about it, but thought the others were
doing the same job! I also run my Norton's Disk
Doctor anytime I install or uninstall a program or
encounter any othe problem during the day and so

once a month as preventive maintenance!
