Chris, I’ve been using CCleaner for a few years now. It came highly recommended from a tech friend. I love it. Saves me time as I once did manually what CCleaner does automagically. Sweet ! – Ken

Great piece of software. Easy to configure if you need to leave some hstory or whatever on the computer. I can not recall it has ever caused any problems on a machine.

How does CCleaner compare to G-Lock Temp Cleaner (also Freeware)?

I’ve used CCleaner for a couple of years now. It’s a great little program that does its job very well. There are many hard drive cleaner apps out there. Some, that you must pay for, have trial versions that are suspected of falsely adding erroneous data to be cleaned so that one feels compelled to buy the product to remove all the nasties it discovered. Not so with CCleaner a very useful, upfront utility. It’s right up there with Webroot’s famed Window Washer and Macecraft’s JV16 Power Tools with one major adavantage…it’s free!

Greetings
I need to clean my HP Jornada 586 . It has demo program files I cannot erase and other files. It seems when I download a demo and decide to erase it ,some leave icons behind both in the program folder and the menu as well.
Can you help. In anticipation–thanks.

I used ccleaner for a few yrs. I recently downloaded “recuva” and to my shock and horror it found 8500 items that were so called errased by ccleaner. It really is a crap cleaner!
