You can buy it at RegNow for that price.
Pros:
Easy to use, it does an excellent job of fixing invalid registry entries and really goes that extra yard.
Cons:
It's only flaw would be the inability to fix 'some' Vista errors. Other than that, I've nothing but praise.
Review:

The program itself does as it claims. Registry First Aid is a thorough, fairly easy to use, and very well-designed program. I think that anyone from computer novice to expert will appreciate its overall performance. Having all the features I've found in the other cleaners on the market, and then some; I'd give RFA an enthusiastic "thumbs-up".

I've been a 'devoted' Registry Mechanic fan for many years and have sampled maybe a half dozen other registry cleaning products. I'm generally a bit leery of registry cleaners, because there are so many ineffective products out there. I found Registry First Aid to be at least as good as my favorite, and definitely far above the other cleaners I've tried.

The features that impressed me, were its multi-language capability, a quick and powerful "registry string" searching engine, a very user-friendly interface/help menu, and (naturally) how well it cleaned the registry.

The machine I used to test it was a 2 month old Presario running Vista that had moderate usage. The first scan came up with 1785 invalid entries. Over half, were marked 'safe to remove' so I deleted 931 right off the bat. Close to a quarter of the errors, however, were "Vista" errors and could not be removed; that being the only flaw in this product that I could find. I've little doubt that future versions/updates will handle those errors as well, though.

I tested the product on many levels; thoroughly. My conclusion: Registry First Aid is truly one of the most highly commendable in its class currently available. I would definitely recommend it.

Conclusion:

If you're looking for an effective, full-featured, and affordable registry cleaner that's easy to use; then R.F.A. is the product for you.
