I remember one time I used a registry cleaner on XP Media Center and it removed a system registry entry that rendered the Media Center capabilities useless.

Stardock Central? That's a (not sure about how people call this) memory hog...

Yes, I've noticed Stardock products tend to slow down systems, especially older computers and laptops.

Actually Stardock isn't that bad depending on which programs you use. Stardock Central is kinda their all-inclusive package and you can pick and choose what you want to install, but generally speaking they only take up a few MB of memory in my experiences.

Oh, and it is hard to get into the Nigerian lottery. They say that they are very selective with who they choose. :)
