Pros: This free utility has all the features found in paid software uninstall programs plus some extra features. Like the paid applications, it shows all installed programs with an icon in it's user friendly GUI. It does a good job at cleaning up all files, folders and registry keys left behind by the uninstalled program. It's hunter mode and options like deleting from auto start are excellent features. This program gives the user a chance to look and make sure about shared registry keys (prior to cleaning) that could damage other programs. The auto start manager and junk file cleaner are nice extras not normally found in this type utility. It's compatible with "XP" and "Vista" and the price can't be beat.

Cons: Not a con but a reminder to double check any shared registry keys prior to clean up. If there are any doubts, leave it.

Although this has never happened to me, a friend with three computers in his home installed and used this utility on two. He uninstalled "McAfee Site Adviser" on his and his wifes computers with it and both machines were left with damaged "Windows XP" operating systems. One, "XP Home" and the other "XP Media Center". My machine is a "Vista" system and has not been damaged by this programs use. But to be sure, I've switched back to "Your Uninstaller".
