CNET editors' review
Reviewed by: CNET Staff on November 07, 2008
Although it lacks a few of the bells and whistles found in other PC-cleaning applications, this free program offers more than enough features to make it a worthy download. CCleaner's interface is logically designed and makes it easy to wipe away your tracks from Internet Explorer, Firefox, Opera, and Google Chrome from various Windows system areas, and from some third-party applications.
CCleaner doesn't support the large number of extraneous programs that some competitors do, but it can erase traces from such popular programs as Spybot - Search & Destroy and WinZip. CCleaner now offers secure file erasing along with a Registry-cleaning utility that quickly scans for invalid entries before removing them. CCleaner can even back up your Registry before removal, in case it accidentally removes a crucial component, and the download includes a rudimentary feature for uninstalling any program on your machine.
Since this free application handles the majority of PC-cleaning chores and offers a nice extra, we strongly recommend CCleaner to all users, except those who need robust tools to remove supersensitive data.

Version: CCleaner 2.19.889
"Very fast and efficient, portable version available."
Pros: Simple and intuitive interface. Does all the essential cleaning necessary to keep a system going. Particularly useful in public locations such as schools and colleges. Very safe to use, never had a problem as a result of its action.
Cons: Sometimes misses MUI entries in the registry, but a trivial matter compared to what it does find and fix. When cleaning cookies it cleans them all, there is no opt out for specific cookies you might want to keep.
Summary: I have used CCleaner for a number of years, literally on a daily basis. Its main advantage is simplicity and speed. It cleans up a computer in less than a minute, and does so with the minimum of fuss. It's ideal in an education environment where you... read more >>
