WHAT IS UPHCLEAN
================

UPHClean is a service that once and for all gets rid of problems with user
profile not unloading.

You are having profile unload problems if you experience slow logoff (with
Saving Settings for most of the time while logging off), roaming profiles
that do not reconcile, or the registry size limit is reached.

WHY DO PROFILES NOT UNLOAD?
===========================

Many system and service processes do work on behalf of users.  When the work
is done the system or service process is responsible for releasing handles it
has to the user profile hive.  If this is not done by the service as the user
logs off the profile cannot be unloaded.

This problem in code can be caused by improper coding either in Microsoft
software or 3rd party software (e.g. printer drivers, virus scanner service,
etc).  With the information provided by the system there is no way to find
out what software needs to be corrected to allow profiles to unload.

Your last two MS links are dead...

And it does improve slow profile unload.
