I used this software and it ended up corrupting the plug in Splashtop connect on my browser on my computer, so i had to reset Internet explorer to it's default settings, do people recommend to use this software on computers? Does this do actually bad then good? What do people think of these software? Just curious. I have not used it since this happened.

Both are garbage. Use CCleaner and any free antivirus program such as Avast or Microsoft Security Essentials.
 
I ran a little experiment on RegHunter. Despite using CCleaner on my registry, RegHunter always found around 37 errors. So I deleted all the crap on my computer using CCleaner, ran RegHunter, let it "repair" my registry, then immediately rebooted and without running any other software, ran RegHunter again. Wouldn't you know it, it found almost the same errors again - and presumably it had just fixed them!! So my conclusion is that either this product creates sham errors to justify its existence, or it is totally ineffective. I have since removed both RegHunter and SpyHunter from my computer, written off my first six month's subscription to experience, and emailed the vendors to cancel my subscription. Incidentally, after removing both products, I also did a search of my registry and removed residual references to these products.
