Need some CCleaner instruction

I've just down loaded Crap Cleaner, ran it and got 310mb freed up... Thanks for the Tip Owen.

However, I'm a little confused on what the Applications tab does. Does it just clear out temp files for the listed Programs, or does it remove those programs? I'm a little scared, becasue it's listing several programs I use/need.

If you hit the Analyze button you will see this list without removing.

But they are mostly temp files; logs; history & cookies.

I regularly clean these with no problems.

Thanks, I figured it wasn't deleteing programs, but I wanted to be safe.

How safe is the registry cleaner? Is it foolhardy to just let it 'fix' everything it finds?

In my opinion the Registry Cleaner is safe.

It is not a very "deep" scan however. For a free Reg cleaner I prefer:

It's a bit more thorough & it creates backups.

You may find that you have to log back into sites that remembered your password.

not if you go to options then cookies if the web page is in the cookies to delete box then just highlight it and move it across to the cookies to keep box
