This bare-bones privacy application doesn't even do its main job well, making it impossible for us to endorse it. Clean Assistant works in step-by-step mode, letting you choose whether to wipe Internet Explorer history, Temporary Files history, or clean out other Windows system areas such as the Run menu and the Recent Documents list. The app not only lacks support for alternative browsers, but it doesn't even work well with IE; after multiple cleaning sessions, the program never erased typed URLs. And unlike many of its more competent competitors, this program can't erase tracks from popular third-party apps such as IM clients and P2P apps, though it does support a couple of basic Microsoft utilities. You can choose to delete the contents of a user-selected folder, but that doesn't make up for the lack of a secure file shredder. Though it looks like a potentially decent program for newbies, we can't lend Clean Assistant much support until it actually delivers on its promise.

Summary
I had been having a great deal of difficulty cleaning my cache, for about a month now. Whenever I tried, the process would get hung up. After receiving no answer from Windows XP help, visting forums, etc., I downloaded several programs, including PC Surgeon and System Cleaner, to no avail. PC Surgeon also got hung up performing the task, and System Cleaner must be purchased before completing the fix. In desparation I tried one more: Clean Assistant. After a short dl, it made short and easy work of clearing out my overburdened internet files. I love it and will be purchasing the product, as well as trying their others!
