I'm looking for a program that could identify unused registry entries and remove them
what do you suggest?

I've heard that Max Registry Cleaner is good, but I don't personally use registry cleaners. I've seen too many PCs that have been ruined by such software, and Windows XP is fairly good at managing the registry, unlike Windows 95, 98 and Me.

Ccleaner that I recommended to you in this thread has a registry cleaner built in, and it's feeware.

XP doesn't remove any unused registries as such, it's just that it is generally better at managing the registry in that it leaves fewer unnecessary registry entries, and cleans up after uninstalls much better than previous operating systems. It is also affected much less by a 'bloated' registry, in that the PC won't slow down as much as previous operating systems did.

Ive been using my XP machine for years, and never cleaned the registry. I dont think it is necessary.
