Hi Austechers.
In searching for a tool to help all of you using a Windows PC, early
this afternoon I visited a system administrator / PC builder friend
of mine to ask his opinion.
He highly recommended CCleaner for use on Windows XP. He then showed
me how it worked on his PC and it does a very good cleanup of system
clutter, reviving your PC and removing private information as you
wish. (You can easily configure what it does and doesn't fix or touch
through a file explorer style list of item / cleanup task check boxes.)
It also features a particularly effective automated registry cleanup tool.
While not as comprehensive as the very affordable commercial tool
Iolo System Mechanic, which I recommended earlier, CCleaner is a
remarkably fine tool in its own right, especially for free. Of
course you are welcome to donate to its developer if you like the
tool, which entitles you to receive the latest CCleaner updates
before they are available on its Web site.
So, if you have executable file download and local PC administration
privileges, do give this tool a try.
(In particular, I am hoping that it will help Ana Young with her
software woes at this time. Also, some time ago, Christine Kent
asked about a budget but effective PC optimiser tool, so here it is Christine.)
See: http://www.ccleaner.com/ for more.
Hope that helps.
