give test run  of Intellismart Registry Cleaner. It want set itself
to start at startup without asking from me. I don't trust programs
like this.

I use Toni Helenius EasyCleaner. (If you search for ToniArts You
may end up hijacked version).

I'm not sure that in case of 200 something messages I would
start clean reinstall because in my case almost all messages are
file type associations. But this is my computer where I test and use
number of specific programs.
