CCleaner.com....Anybody here good at reading scan results

[X&Y]

Basically my PC is running a bit slow at the mo

Speed checker carried out all seems fine

All seems ok navigating around a site but slow when moving from one site to another.

Have done the usual Spybot and Ad Aware scans all fine.

Just want someone to check a CCleaner.com scan log and advise me of anything that can be deleted.

Thanks

I tend to just trust CCleaner to do it's thing, it hasn't deleted anything it shouldn't have so far. And if you run it on the registry it asks if you want to make a backup before it makes any changes

I just ran it and cleaned up what it advised and it seems to have done the job

There's nothing on the PC worth losing anyway...... so i just delete away

OK Rich that's cool. Did you let it have a go at the registry too?

I must say, I notice a definite improvement after running it, especially on the family PC which has four of us using it

It's shocking what gets left behind in the registry. Uninstallers are renowned for leaving files that "may" be used for other programs. All of this junk gets loaded on start and soaks up valuable processing power.

Is it easy to use, how do I go about using Ccleaner?
Thanks for any advice

Greigster it's dead easy. Just click a button and it finds all the stuff that's slowing your PC down and deals with it in minutes. A must-have in my book

I use revo uninstaller to uninstall programs as it deletes all the bits normally left behind.

This is a good site for many things. All I've ever had on the family PC is AVG (free) and Ccleaner. If you have too many spybots/registry cleaners malware program's they can conflict with each other. Keep it simple keep it fast.
