Faster Boot Up, Optimized XP and Enhanced Privacy Protection - CCleaner
CCleaner is a really advanced tool for Windows XP optimization and Privacy Protection just like WinClear. However, this 2.5MB optimization tool have far more advanced features than present in WinClear.
CCleaner's latest version 2.00.5 has four sections of tools:
- Cleaner: As the name implies that this section of CCleaner contains the tools for cleaning up traces of your Internet and PC activities. CCleaner allows you to scan for PC and Internet activities separately. Just click on the analyze button and it will trace all the vulnerable information on your PC.
- Registry: This section is for PC optimization. You might be knowing that it's the registries which are responsible for a PC to go slower and slower. The CCleaner Registry optimizer finds out unwanted and invalid registries which are then deleted from your Registry Editor or changed to their default values
- Tools: With this one you can manage your installed applications and startup programs. Many times, even after uninstalling a program with the Add/Remove Program utility of the Windows XP, the application leaves some traces of its installation. But CCleaner Uninstaller makes sure that every trace of your application is removed from your computer. You can also specify which applications should be allowed to run at the startup which are one of the most important cause of a computer taking a long time to startup.
- Options: This section is the brain of CCleaner and saves all the settings for the CCleaner to use at the time of it's operation. It also allows you to delete cookies, individual files and folders and many more.
CCleaner is completely free from spywares so that you don't have to worry about your computer getting filled with various types of malwares every time you run it. CCleaner is completely free to use and you don't ask you for a penny to use their software. However, if you really liked the work of the CCleaner developers you can always donate them.
