free software - ccleaner - cool cleaning program!

icefall

great little free cleaning program for your computer, I have used this a few times and find it brilliant, there is even an issues cleaner which cleans up leftovers from old programs that have been uninstalled from your computer. Totally free not a trial version and no spyware either.

I highly recommend it - any comments appreciated.

I've used this product for quite a while now and it does exactly as it says on the tin. I'm very happy with it.

I've used ccleaner for the first time recently. All appears to be OK so far.

I've read reports about this programme on other forums and it would seem to be a good free download which is ultra safe to use.

It is definately one of the best Freeware programs out there, coincidentally anyone who wants to try freeware wouldnt go wrong by trying https://www.nonags.com for some free downloads, you dont have to join to get them.

Have been using this for a few months, have it in a directory called essentials, along with Adware, Spybot and AVG anti-virus, all free and keeps the computer clean of rubbish.
