You're off topic for this forum, which is dedicated to Windows Live OneCare.

The Safety Scanner forums were here:

http://boards.live.com/safetyboards/board.aspx?BoardID=225

That scanner no longer exists and the new scanner does not perform a "tune-up". You can use the Windows tools such as Disk Cleanup and Defrag. I don't recommend the use of a registry scanner, which was part of the Safety Scanner. See: http://www.edbott.com/weblog/2005/04/why-i-dont-use-registry-cleaners/

For performance concerns, post to the Windows forums on Answers for assistance:
