QUOTE(merellogalasso @ Jul 18 2008, 11:04 PM)  What about CCleaner? Many thanks. CCleaner is a system clean-up tool that removes temp files and other unneeded files. The tool is not a substitute for Anti Malware. -------------------- Regards

I also need to be sure that if you use CCleaner, or any registry cleaner application, you are very very very very careful; since the registry cleaner part of CC can be very powerful, unless you are experienced with operating systems and know how to review the candidated deletions, using that part of it can do great harm to your computer.

I like so much to see that nice picture of Nietzsche... Actually I have been using CCleaner without troubles but I will stop using the register scanning. I got serious troubles with something like Cleaner 2007 or so, that deleted almost my hair, including the free AVG 7.5. A lot of thanks. Currently I am having troubles with this because of the paroxistic non installing of the resident shield. Many thanks and greeting

I would also recommend CCleaner for cleaning up junk, However don't use the Registry Cleaner please. The best Reg Cleaners would be me and you to be honest.
But the good thing if you want to use the Reg cleaner in CCleaner you can make a back up first.  <<Highly Recommended.
