All the crap that is held on your computer is supposed to speed up browsing because they in theory don't need to download this again the next time you visit the site. When you look in the Windows picture and fax viewer you see them all. I run Cleanup! at least once a day on my XP machines. I have been criticised for saying that keeping your computer running well and infection free is simply commonsense, but the only thing about sense in all its' guises is that is a lot more uncommon than expected. People put off doing simple things that may take in total a small amount of time daily, and then they spend hours or days trying to put things right that are simply caused by neglect. Unfortunately people get in trouble with computers both through what they do and what they fail to do. - Paris, AZTEC CNET editors' review - This fast freeware file cleaner clears your system of certain junk files, but it doesn't ask permission before deletion. CleanUp's multitabbed dialog-size interface needs little explanation. It takes just a minute of setting options and this program is set for system cleaning. CleanUp operates best when set for daily cleaning. It removes junk files quickly, and it can be easily set to operate silently. The program empties the Recycle Bin, deletes newsgroup subscriptions and cache, eats cookies, forgets favorite places, and will even reset some game scores. With one click it will wipe, rather than simply delete, files. Customizing cleaning of select folders and Registry entries is also a quick and painless process. As a matter of fact, setting options is so easy one forgets this program will delete files without pause. Similar apps list files set for deletion to give users the opportunity to select which will be deleted. The program only offers a demo mode to show what files would be deleted during the normal run, but there's no option to save select files when its in actual use. This freeware is best suited for experienced users, who will quickly find the proper customization options for their systems to make CleanUp a fine daily tool to remove select temp files. - Download.com Please see known issues below before downloading.
