Developer’s Description

By 12Ghosts
Maintain privacy and recover space.
Maintains your privacy by not allowing others to see which web sites you have visited or what you have done in Windows. All options can be cleared with just one click, or even automatically at startup, shutdown, or at a certain time of day.

12-Wash removes tracks deliberately, even where other programs fail, for example, cleaning related traces in the registry. With the optional shredder not even finest magnetic tracks are left of any compromising or confidential information.

Removes history, cookies, temporary cached files, and the typed-address list of Internet Explorer, AOL, MSN, Netscape Navigator, and Opera. Many Windows options, as well as most-recently-used menus are wiped.

It even deletes locked files (files that are in use, for example those ominous "index.dat" files). 12-Wash queues deletion for the next Windows restart when the files are no longer locked!

You may extend the washing with any user defined item. Personal files, complete folders, certain file types, for example all *.chk and *.tmp files), and of course individual registry keys and registry values can be cleared automatically or at your command.

Offers secrecy and concealment for visited websites and files used during a Windows session.
