    Has anyone used this program? If so, what do you think? Also, any links on similar software to compare would be appreciated. I run windows 2000 pro.

    Thanks,

    I have never heard of it and would steer clear of it. I see it has only been downloaded 35 times in the last year at zdnet - not a good recommendation.

    A similar program used and recommended by many on the Board is CCleaner

    Thanks for the reply Pete,

    Can I run CCleaner without using the registry cleaner?-- I'm a little nervous about messing with that.

    Yes - you choose what to run - just stick to the Cleaner section which will remove the entries in the items you check under the Windows and Applications. I would leave Internet Explorer Cookies and Autocomplete Form History unchecked, unless you want to lose that data too.

    The Issues section cleans the Registry - I don't use that at all.
