Anybody use CCleaner?
Does anyone here use a program called
CCleaner? If so, what do you think of it? The program gets very good reviews at cnet.com. The first C stands for a word that Dell will not allow me to type in the body of this message or the subject line.
- LawnmowerguyI think it's the best all-around cleaner. Be very selective on what it cleans until you get used to it. Instead of going to different utilities/apps to delete this and that, they're all in one place (CCleaner).

What about CCleaner's registry clean-up tool? I haven't used that yet, and many have suggested it is not necessary with Windows XP.- I try to never use any rsgistry cleaners. The info I have read suggests you do not need to conduct this activity. However, I did try an experiment on a PC at work. The result was this - everything worked fine and I have had no problems. CCleaner does have a provision to back up the values removed.

The registry cleaner works fine.....never had a problem with it. I use it on both computers.

I've now replaced XP's Disk Cleanup with CCleaner. It does a FAR more thorough job.
