CCleaner is a freeware system optimization, privacy and cleaning tool. It removes unused files from your system - allowing Windows to run faster and freeing up valuable hard disk space. It also cleans traces of your online activities such as your Internet history. Additionally it contains a fully featured registry cleaner. But the best part is that it's fast (normally taking less than a second to run) and contains NO Spyware or Adware.

I agree. CCleaner is such a great program and I am so thankful every time I use it that it is freeware.
The aforementioned $23 program can't do a better job and is like so many others that cram other functions in and are never used.
I haven't used this product in a while and when my PC gets full, I'll use it to clean clean it out.
CCleaner doesn't install ask.com but Yahoo! toolbar. It's recommended that you should install the Slim version.
Not only that, but it tries to install ask.com on your computer! :-O
I hear you! I had to reinstall my OS because I used the registry cleaner! With such small files being installed into the registry, just leave it alone. There is NO WAY that any registry cleaner could possibly know all of the file names that program writers make up and install. BAD IDEA!
Everyone here seems to have lots of love for this program, but today it killed my wife's laptops registry. I think it would of great help if the registry list of "problems" had a collumn with the origin of the file, so you can see if it is a valid entry, or something that really should be deleted. because lets face it, does anyone really know exactly what every dll file does- by name?
How do we make an informed choice on which to delete or not delete?
