Re: here is a good site to download c cleaner

Could be with you on that one. Would be nice to hear if anyone has had that 
experience. I know, several manufacturers of such software, do claim their 
product to speed up your system.

After having tried a number of Fixing and Cleaning software - some 
accessible, others hardly doable for a blind user - I do find there is 
little to achieve, comes to speed up a computer. Some might argue, you just 
have to set up the software to be agresive enough. Yet doing so, it usually 
will clean out just about anything, and you end up with several applications 
on your system loosing their license keys or other important settings. I 
have had use of the cleaners, in very few situations, where I had trouble in 
uninstalling unwanted, or outdated, pieces of software. In those cases, I 
did have to manually edit the registry, to get rid of the obvious entries 
for the software in question. Then, after having done this manual job, I did 
run a cleaning software, so as to rid my registry of any further entries 
coresponding to the troublesome uninstallation. This approach, was that 
techie and time-consuming, I do not recommend it for most average users. For 
the rest of the time, I am about to tell the same experience as you Chip; my 
cleaner will report several handfuls of problems, you let it do its job, 
only to find that your computer runs exactly as smoothly or troubled as 
before. That is the moment, you find yourself stored away in the corner of 
your couch, eagerly scratching the bottom of your hair, wondering if this 
piece of cleaning software really did anything at all to your system, or if 
it was another way of making up computer entertainment. Smile. Sure, the 
software might be good at its job, and in given situations I do recommend 
giving it a try. But really speeding up your system, would take to fix the 
problem behind the stuff your cleaner finds. Usually, this is caused by 
malware and other unwanted activity on your system. Or, due to risky 
settings on your computer, like leaving it open for all kinds of cookies, 
whenever you browse the net.

Look at the cleaning software, as a vacuum cleaner in your home. It might be 
extremely effective, picking up even the least dust particle. Yet, if your 
grand-child always comes running in, without kicking off her shoes in the 
porch? How long will your home stay neat and clean? Only till next time she 
is coming in. Same goes on your computer. Do you leave it exposed for all 
kind of funny activity - knowingly or unknowingly - it won't take long to 
clutter up your system. In such cases, I do guess, the cleaner might have a 
certain effect on your system speed. But this will not last long. Next week, 
when your computer has had its time and fun, your registry and temporary 
file folders, are the same cluttered once again. Better go then is, to make 
sure things get cleaned out right away, or even better, don't get on your 
system first hand. A good anti-malware, combined with an anti-virus, will 
often prevent most such cases. Correctly setting up your security level in 
Internet Explorer or Firefox, could also prevent numerous cookies from being 
stored on your system. ;Many people claim that cookies are all harmless, yet 
removing them from your computer, I can highly confirm the system running 
faster and more smoothly. That will have to be the topic for another 
posting, though.

I also would like to hear from people who say "after I ran CCleaner, my
system was enormously faster ... it fixed a really bothersome problem I 
had
been having ... or any such  improvement.  I found, despite the claimed
number of "fixes", that my system runs the same as ever.

It actually has already been done. The CCleaner was part of the Ninite
installer - way up till something like two years ago. Then, all the
sudden,
it was removed from the Ninite site. I did contact the customer service 
at
Ninite, and got a polite message in return, informing me that the 
CCleaner
team had requested their software being removed from the Ninite 
installer.
Too bad, but that is the reason why it is not there. Somehow, I tend to
stop
using the CCleaner, simply due to the fact I am tired of having to update
the software numerous times a year, and every time having to deal with a
handful of junk. Not exactly a good reputation for a software, that 
claims
to help you keep your computer clean and optimized. If they were that
helpful, then why the junk. Eat our burger and get poisoned? :) And if
they
do shower us with that kind of junk as part of the software installation,
then I do question how much other "hidden" insecurity could be part of 
the
CCleaner. Too bad, since it seems to be one of the few accessible 
cleaners
on the market.

But, I do have a feeling, the Ninite staff is not the ones to be 
addressed
here. Maybe a better idea would be, to get in touch with the staff behind
CCleaner directly, explaining how cumbersome it is to get hold of their
software, and what trash they deliver with it. Also, stressing the fact
that
their software is accessible, and therefore could be useful to the blind
community. And, maybe, asking them what other hidden stuff they include
in
their "cleaner".
