OK, NOW I'M WORRIED, I PURCHASED REG TOOL BECAUSE i HAD SOME ADD ON MY SCREEN THAT WOULD NOT GO AWAY. I RAN THE SOFTWARE WHICH DIDN'T GET RID OF THE PROBLEM BUT, ONE OF THEIR TECH DIALED INTO MY COMPUTER AND FIXED THE PROBLEM. MY COMPUTER IS RUNNING GREAT.

I had the "latest" windows malware, Trojan.Win32Agent.
.I used MALWAREBYTES to remove this..
Well, it found over 980 Rogue infected files, and all of them were attached to Reg Tool. Reg Tool itself is like a virus!!

RegTool ruined my Skype

I personally got rid of Regtool by downloading PC Tools Spyware Doctor free version.
I just deleted all the files and registry keys it told that were rogue and everything works fine now

If regtool is so bad, why is there an advertisement for it on this page?

I want to uninstall reg tool from my computer

8. by . 2009-07-18 09:07:46
I like the features and functions of RegTool but it is totally unresponsive to navigation around the user interface. Sometimes minutes after you click a hotspot it may finally go there. Their Chat Person said I have to buy it before their texh will solve my problem.
No thanks to that.

I have downloaded the re/tool software and have a hard time getting into the internet. To fix it you have to get into the INternet. I need a phone number so that I can call so that someone from this co. can help me get the best of this software. HELP!. If not I will try to remove it.

Also, when you try to uninstall it it tries to change your pc config - vista notifies you of this - forcing you to remove manually. Malwarebytes also did not detect and remove this when i tried.

Hmmm it looks like crap - reminds me of xp antivirus 2008 - fake av software. That looked legit and said it gets rid of 100s virus but that actually was a virus. I have client with slow pc and i am trying to remove this because i am sure it is the culprit. Use ccleaner - that is good.

I used regtool, everything worked fine after it did its thing. Yes, the annoying pop ups kept coming but the pc is was superb after.! So which alternative do you recommend.????

I have paid money for this software, and it worth buying and this software is best software availiable in the market. I don't understand why are you saying it is spyware or rogue.

I love this software.
