CCleaner (Crap Cleaner) Problem w/ Recent Documents

I just upgraded from Win98SE to WinXP-Pro last week and have spent a lot of
time tweaking XP to my liking.

One thing that I insist is that the Cookies, History, Temporary Internet
Files and Recent folders be on the 64mb RAM Drive that I have installed as
drive G:

I've noticed that every time I run Crap Cleaner that the entire "Recent"
folder on drive G: disappears and is re-created in C:\Documents and
Settings\%USERPROFILE% as "My Recent Documents". I keep running X-Setup
Pro to change it back, Reboot, Delete "My Recent Documents" on drive C: and
recreate "Recent" on the Ram Drive, but every time I run Crap Cleaner it
changes it back to the default. The other 3 folders stay intact.

Anyone else notice this?

I haven't changed my path for this folder from what Windows manages,
so I haven't noticed this ...but it looks like Crap Cleaner has the
original Windows path hardcoded into it. Can't think of a solution.
