*CCleaner* is a very efficient and easy to use utility that *cleans* and
*optimizes* your PC to ensure best performance and freedom from malware. The
beauty of *free download* CCleaner is the *speed at which it carries out the
various scans and fixes*. Its main purpose is to clean any unnecessary files
from your hard-drive and on opening the program you see the various aspects
of Windows that you can search through and clear. *CCleaner will also detect
your installed applications* that may hold on to files which are no longer
any use, such as Google Earth histories or Flash Player configurations. The
uninstaller is probably more useful, and more powerful, than Windows own
uninstaller although use it with care! If you don't know what an entry
relates to in the program list, leave it alone to be on the safe side
otherwise you could end-up removing vital components. When you install
CCleaner, it will prompt you whether you want to install Google Chrome as
well and whether you want to use CCleaner to *preserve cookies that you use
regularly to log-onto websites, security checks etc*. The *interface in
CCleaner is very easy to navigate* and before taking any action, you will
always be asked to confirm that you are sure about what you want to do. There
is a useful *Registry Checker* that will quickly check its integrity, and let
you fix bad entries after making a backup. CCleaner's uninstall and startup
tools are very handy to have overall and simply add to the usability of this
very rounded little maintenance assistant. The most recent release of
CCleaner now comes with a *Drive Wiper*. Drive Wiper can be accessed in the
Tools section of CCleaner and allows you to *choose whether to scrub only
free space or an entire drive using three levels of strength* - Department of
Defense-level three-pass option, a National Security Administration-level
seven-pass cleaning or a 35-pass Gutmann-level deep scrub. There's also
improved support for cleaning files left behind by Google Chrome and Internet
Explorer 9. Web Apps that use HTML5 database storage are also now included in
CCleaner's cleaning process. Finally, a few more System directories have been
targeted for cleaning and CCleaner now supports 64 bit machines. *CCleaner
makes keeping your PC clean easy for beginners and experts alike. It's small,
fast, comprehensive, and free to download - get cleaning now!* *Useful Links*
