Hi Everyone I wondered what people's thoughts were towards Uniblue and PCPitstop. I recently picked up both PCPitStop and Uniblue's SpeedUpMyPC and RegistryBooster as I wasn't sure which one was better and I still can't tell as different people say different ones are better. What do you guys think?
