"Description wrong - only for Windows 95/98"
Version: Microsoft Windows Installer Cleanup Utility Update
Pros
Since it won't load for Windows XP, I couldn't say.
Cons
The CNET description is in error - when attempting to install the program, a window pops up saying it's only for Windows 95/98, not for NT-based systems.
Summary
If you're using Windows XP, don't bother with this version.

"Cannot install on XP"
Version: Microsoft Windows Installer Cleanup Utility Update

"This is the Window 98/95 version of the Installer Clean Up Utility and will not run on Windows NT.

"Works Great! Helped a lot! Glad to have this!"
Version: Microsoft Windows Installer Cleanup Utility Update
Pros
It's easy to setup, and super easy to use. Takes up little space.
Cons
It's kind of fun to use, so you need to be careful what you're deleting.
Summary
Free, Easy, and does an exellent job. Just what I needed. Everyone should have one of these, because when removing items, it always leaves bits behind that need to be cleaned out someway. All you need to do, is know the file name, and this utility takes care of the rest.
Hmm, I wrote my review while this updated version was downloading. I've never had difficulties with the older ones, but upon opening and trying to run it, I receive a mesage that this program is for Windows 97/98, and not for an NT system. The requires clearly say it IS for XP, like I have, so not sure what the deal is. I will notify tech support. Hopefully it's a glitch on my end.
