Otherwise, I run both about once a week.
Understood Howard and I will just use my best judgment
then and very true on the install/uninstall scenarios
also! And probably once a week would be fine, however
this monster has succeeded in getting me a bit paranoid
I guess and I just feel a bit more secure if I run it
every day to preclude additional problems being added
to the ones I already experience!
I also used to use

I thought about running Nortons, but rejected it since
my RC seemed to be doing just fine by itself!

Understood and will do!
Double clicking on a backup restores the Registry to

Yes, I was aware of that function!

No, I have had no intentions of using the other
utilities unless I read up on them enough to fully
understand their purpose, limitations and liabilities
and even then I may just elect to not use them at all
unless something happens to force me into using them!
Thanks for the info and I will go ahead and install EC
this afternoon sometime and run it after running RC
just to see if it does indeed pick up something extra
to delete!
