    I use several...

    For just general cleaning out of files, Privacy Eraser Pro. I also use CCleaner.

    For my registery problems, I use RegScrub and CleanMyPC.

    I also use diskeeper for defrag purposes.

    I've always used Registry Mechanic, but I don't have anything to compare it to.
