Programs to clean out your systems from junk
To clean out your system from unneeded files, correct registry errors and clean the autostart menu we advise installing CCleaner. First of all you need to select what needs to be cleaned, then click ‘Analyze’ and after analysis is done you need to click ‘Clean’. The procedure is identical with registry. This utility also can uninstall programs and adjust autostart menu, which can be done from the ‘Service’ tab paragon partition magic.
There are also several software uninstall utilities. We recommend Revo Uninstaller. It can not only uninstall programs, but also delete the software registry entries. This utility can also be used to clean up the autostart menu and the system as a whole, and erase data of you hard-drive.
Office
There two alternatives to Microsoft Office: OpenOffice by Sun and Lotus Symphony by IBM.
First let us say a few words about OpenOffice. The package includes word processor, tables, database, formula and presentations redactor and a basic graphics editor. This office package is pretty much similar to Microsoft Office 2010 Home.
The appearance and menus are fully adjustable. You can make it look totally identical to Microsoft Office. Spell and grammar check works wonderfully. OpenOffice works with Microsoft Office document formats (including Microsoft Office 2007). There are no compatibility issues. As a bonus, there is an integrated support of document export to PDF format.
It is worth mentioning, that Microsoft Office Service Pack 2 includes support of open format ODF, which is a standard format for OpenOffice and Lotus Symphony.
This office package has a modification called Go-OO, where the overall performance is somewhat improved; it has better compatibility with other office packages and also supports VBA macros.

We advise using 7-Zip. It supports integration in the context menu and has support of a numerous formats (ARJ, CAB, CHM, CPIO, DEB, HFS, ISO, LZH, LZMA, MSI, NSIS, RAR, RPM, UDF, WIM, XAR and ZIP). Its compression rate is higher than that of Winrar.
You can also use a 7-ZIP Theme Manager, which allows you to change the appearance of the program.
