CCleaner Reviewed

As you might know Windows has a tendency to get slower over time.
CCleaner is a tool designed to reduce this effect by deleting files that you don’t need and removing invalid entries in the registry. After running CCleaner you can expect to have a faster and more reliable computer, you’ll even get more disc space!

What CCleaner actually cleans:

Temp files and similar from the following applications:

Internet Explorer
Recycle Bin
Clipboard
Windows Temporary files
Windows Log files
Recent Documents (on the Start Menu)
Run history (on the Start Menu)
Windows XP Search Assistant history
Windows XP old Prefetch data
Windows memory dumps after crashes
Chkdsk file fragments
Firefox
Opera
Safari
Media Player
eMule
Kazaa
Google Toolbar
Netscape
Microsoft Office
Nero
Adobe Acrobat Reader
WinRAR
WinAce
WinZip and more...

CCleaner is capable of cleaning the following entries from the registry:

File Extensions
ActiveX Controls
ClassIDs
ProgIDs
Uninstallers
Shared DLLs
Fonts
Help File references
Application Paths
Icons
Invalid Shortcuts and more…

CCleaner is getting better and better by every program update. Did we mention that CCleaner got a auto update function? There is a new CCleaner release every month so remember to update CCleaner!
Cleaner is fast in use as long as you choose just to delete files, but if you choose the safe file deletion it takes much longer time, but this is normal as the files are overwritten several times.
