Use this if you've no experience running scripts :

CleanUp !
http://www.stevengould.org/software/cleanup/download.html

" # If you have never before used CleanUp!, then please take the time to read the "Introduction to CleanUp!" section of the Help file. This describes in detail what files and settings are "cleaned" when you run CleanUp!. Be sure that nothing here conflicts with your use of your computer.
For example, CleanUp! attempts to delete files from various temporary directories (including download directories/caches), as well as emptying the Recycle Bins. If you make a habit of saving files that you wish to keep in any of these places, then note that they will be deleted when CleanUp! is run. Note that it is generally considered poor practice to use temporary folders or the Recycle Bin to store files you intend to keep. "

This looks like a nice easy way to dump the old stuff. But where do I
put it? How do I active it? (I have never created or manually used a
batch file).


Please help me!
