Editors’ Review

Download.com staffNovember 8, 2008

While this program scores points because of its free status, we don't think it should be the only PC-privacy application you download. Similar to all utilities of this ilk, Washee cleans out basic Windows system areas, such as the Recycle Bin, temporary folders, and the Run menu item. It also nukes your Web-surfing history and related files, though it only works with Internet Explorer. You can add a list of folders to wipe by clicking the Custom Cleaner tab, but the program doesn't have native support for third-party programs, such as file-sharing apps, IM clients, and Microsoft Office apps. We also missed a utility for securely shredding files, though you can't expect everything from a free program. However, the upside of Washee's simplicity is its user-friendly interface, which can be learned in a matter of seconds. This app works just fine for routine PC housecleaning, but more advanced users will demand a more powerful tool.

didn't brother
Cons
Upon first start, my firewall said washee was trying to connect to the washee web site. That killed it for me. <p> <p>I didn't have the time to investigate why, so i just dumped it. <p> <p>If you don't have a firewall; you wouldn't even know it was trying to send info out.

I am running win98. Washee locked up and I had to manually shut it down. My C drive is still messed up. I had to reload my entire operating system. I lost several files. DON'T DOWNLOAD THIS PROGRAM. Now I have to rewrite some valuable DOS (GWbasic) programs that help me with my work.

Summary
Use Win98SE; with History Folder in C/windows/history/today. This program will NOT clear history in the Today folder; using IE6. It will clear it in the History folder; but there are none....it's all in the Today folder. I uninstalled this; good clean uninstall; except c/windows/program files/washee. Had to manually delete the Washee folder from Windows Explorer.

Summary
Easy to install. Small memory (4.21MB). Very easy to configure. Great features & attractive interface. This program is a must have for all those who surf the web on a daily basis. It erases 'EVERYTHING'. This program deserves nothing less than a 100% rating, despite what some of these assh*/es think. Companies like Private Navigator work their 'BUTTS' off so people like 'US' can enjoy our time on the internet & it boggles my mind how some people still find it in themselves to 'COMPLAIN'. Whatever the case may be, life goes on. Thanks again to Private Navigator, you guys/gals rock!
Nice and Simple.

Hay, a friend of mine recommended this to me so I tried it. Works great. Then my friend used the custom option to clean the "C" drive. Heeeheee, poor dude lost his whole operating system. Works perfect, just don't tell it to clean your whole drive and it won't!
