Re: Regarding CCCleaner

Never had a virus or malware and been running Windows since '95. But I don't
think I'm overdoing it. Just reasonable precautions.

Do all these malaware apps you run twice a week actually find anything
other than tracking cookies?
Are you visiting dubious sites or downloading unofficial stuff?
Do you have a decent Firewall? & I dont mean win default firewall

I've seen this program referenced a number of times in this forum.
I run CA Antivirus, Spybot S&D, Ad-Aware, and Windows Defender twice a
week.
What can cccleaner do that can't be done through normal Windows cleanup
procedures--Disk Cleanup, etc?
Is this program a "registry cleaner"? Are there potential dangers in
using it?
Thanks for any input.
