Vista registry cleaner ... for freeze or hang up,

[phishhead]

I personally install it on all the computers I work on. As well as malwarebytes, and defraggler. both freeware too.

Thanks, I'll look into it, so am I correct that there is no internal Vista tool that will clean the reg. ?

There is no built in reg cleaner but you could try the Disk Defragmenter which will tidy up fragmented files.

Be warned though it can take hours to complete the defrag so you may want to schedule it to run at a time when you know you will not be using the laptop.
