    It isn't the end of modern civilisation as we know it if you do install the toolbar. It isn't a bad piece of software to be honest, and it can be uninstalled really easily either through control panel or CCleaner itself.

    Don't forget all the other free programs you should have to protect yourself from nasties .... Spybot (with TeaTimer activated), SpywareGuard, SpywareBlaster, Windows Defender and, of course, a robust browser with pop up blocker included. If using Internet Explorer you should also have IESpypad installed to block thousands of bad sites.

    To activate TeaTimer:

    * Go into Spybot > Mode > Advanced Mode (say "Yes" to the warning if necessary) > Tools > Resident.
    * Check the following:
    o Resident "TeaTimer" (Protection of over-all system settings) Active.

    Please note: There is currently a bug in TeaTimer 1.4. Portions of TeaTimer's popup dialog overlay the "Allow change" and "Deny change" buttons. On my system the very top edges of the "Allow change" and "Deny change" buttons are showing and I am still able to select the options. I also can check "Remember this decision" since it is visible. If no portion of the "Allow change" and "Deny change" buttons are showing, you can answer TeaTimer's popup dialog (English language version) by pressing "A" on your keyboard for "Allow change" or "D" for "Deny change". If you close the dialog without answering "Allow change" or "Deny change" the registry change is denied. Note that if you close the popup dialog without answering it the registry change will be denied.

    If you can't deal with the problem that way until it is fixed, you can:

    1. Apply one of the workarounds found in the following pinned (Sticky) thread that fixes the pop-up dialog so the buttons are visible:

    2. Disable TeaTimer as follows:
    * Go into Spybot > Mode > Advanced Mode > Tools > Resident.
    * Uncheck the following:
    o Resident "TeaTimer" (Protection of over-all system settings) Active.

    ccleaner is great, it does what it says on the tin, you don't have to take the toolbar.

    Its free!
