We were watching TV the other day and I saw this DoubleMySpeed ad talking about how it would clean the registry of errors and any Malware, which should make it faster and run better.

I have actually never used a registry cleaner on any of my computers. So, I thought, “Do these things actually work?”

I warmed up my trusty Googlizer and did some research and found a lot of conflicting information and lots of opinions both good and bad about everyone.

www.registrycleanertechnology.com

RegistryCleanerTechnology.com (not the most modern looking site ;-) did a in-depth analysis of DoubleMySpeed.com and concluded:

“DoubleMySpeed is a Registry Cleaner whose target demographic is people who don’t have a lot of computer skills, but want to keep their system running smoothly and wants a 24/7 computer help service as well.

Taken in that context, DoubleMySpeed is a good package.”

I discovered that doublemyspeed.com is one of the product of the antivirus maker Cyberdefender, and in a sense is a compliment to their antimalware products. I used their antimalware Early Detection Network (EDN) software and services for one year, and feel they offer one of the better antivirus products.

Doublemyspeed is a combination of technologies 1) installed software and 2) 24/7 call center service.

Cyberdefender customers become part of the EDN peer2peer network that allows for the fastest possible way to distribute new virus and malware signatures to protect all the other Cyberdefender EDN customer’s computer systems of new malware.

This is the Cyberdefender technology graphs about the Early Detection Network:

DoubleMySpeed is what I was originally writing about, so how does all this EDN information relate to it? Well, I mention this background info, is because one of the Registry Cleaner, is to clean all the malware from the registry. Malware usually is placed in the registry, and having a strong security software company like Cyberdefender producing a registry cleaner; has produced DoubleMySpeed.com

If you do the leg work on Cyberdefender, you might find that they are a publicly traded company on the NASDAQ, which means they are a legitimate company with accountability. Many of the so called ‘Antivirus’ software companies are a garage shop operation. Cyberdefender has on the other hand the resources to support its programs and business model, including a call center that provides users with 24/7 computer help.

In summary DoubleMySpeed is a legitimate Registry Cleaner that will clean your registry of any viruses that might be lurking there, as well as repairing any broken registry links and other errors. The result should be a computer that runs with more stability and speed. If you buy the Cyberdefender EDN package then you will get the advantage of having a call center that provides users with 24/7 computer help which will be able to help you deal with most of the computer problems you may encounter using your computer. DoubleMySpeed is really suited for non-technical computer users, who will discover the easy to use interface and call center most helpful.
