Cyber QuickTip: CCleaner

In the spirit of our theme of rejuvenation and protection for this month, we have a tool to help make your Windows PC run more efficiently and securely.

CCleaner is a system optimization, privacy and cleaning tool. It helps your system operate more efficiently because it removes unused files, freeing up valuable disk space on your hard drive. From a security/privacy perspective, it removes traces for your online activities, so temp files, cookies and history are swept away. CCLeaner contains a fully featured registry cleaner, removing unused and old registry settings.

CCleaner is available as freeware. The free download is small, fast (normally less than a second to run), and contains NO Adware or Spyware (Yeah!).

CCleaner work with multiple browsers, including Internet Explorer, Firefox, Google Chrome, Opera and Safari. It empties the Recycle Bin on your Windows PC as well as temporary downloads.

Here is a link to the free download: http://www.piriform.com/ccleaner.

Keep your PC running optimally by doing a Spring Cleaning at least once a year.
