Use your computer long enough and you will start notice that things aren't what they used to be. Your hard drive is filling up with unneeded files, your system's performance is slowing down, and evidence of your Internet usage is everywhere. Privacy Winner is a multifeatured application that helps you manage all of these problems.

Privacy Winner's interface is sleek and intuitive, with its major features separated into different screens that are accessed with a set of attractive buttons. The Security screen allows users to scan for and delete a variety of types of information, including Internet browsing history, Windows cache and history, instant messaging, multimedia, and more. The Junk function, as the name implies, scans the computer for unneeded junk files, while the Shredder allows users to destroy files using three different levels of security. The program is easy to use and works well; our only problem with it--which we have with nearly all programs of this type--is that it has the potential be dangerous if used incorrectly. The program's online FAQ warns that "Deleting or shredding some files or PC traces can cause some irreversible damage. You need to proceed cautiously and be certain of what you are doing." However, neither the program itself nor its FAQ provide any guidance in this regard. Scanning for unneeded files can turn up hundreds or even thousands of results; will you be able to tell what's junk and what's not? If you're not sure, proceed with caution.

Privacy Winner is free. It installs and uninstalls without issues. We recommend this program to all users.

Outstanding and highly effective!
RioismycatApril 3, 2013
Pros
I tested this software using Auslogics Registry Cleaners check system state, that turned up 576 privacy threats, did a scan with Privacy Winner and that turned up even more threats!, deleted all threats found and did a rescan with Auslogics, check system state, privacy threats, only found 1 privacy threat after using Privacy Winner, had no problems with Privacy Winner!, but didn't dare to check recent network connections history, didn't want to take a chance on ruining my connection!, if your careful, this software is highly effective and one of the best privacy cleaners i have tested!
Cons
I could not find any faults with this software!, it is highly effective at what it is meant to do!, clean privacy threats!
Summary
Excellent results with this software!
OK Cleaner - Nothing special
graciemanOctober 5, 2011
Pros
Easy to use interface
Cons
Cannot resize or maximize program window. Cannot save settings of what you have checked and uncecked to clean. Default, Internet Explorer deleting includes favorites. Says for Firefox 3.x, and Firefox is up to version 7.x.
Summary
Not a bad cleaner, but I have seen much better freeware cleaners like CCleaner.

the_GassNovember 24, 2009
Pros
I didnt give IT a chance to find any pro comments.
Cons
Not as good looking an interface as H D POWERWASH seems to offer less than that of H D POWERWASH in settings.
Summary
SEARCH CNET DOWNLOAD.COM FOR (HARD DRIVE POWERWASH) see my review the_GASS . These same like products but with a true difference. Just from what I seen of this one I would rate it as a #4 and HARD DRIVE POWERWASH I would rate as a #8. Hope I did you a solid just now. the_GASS

Nothing of importance. WOuld possibly like a little more user control, but I believe you can upgrade to a paid version for more options.
Summary
Does a good job for a free program.
