Sounds OK but I think very like CCleaner ( always free, not just today).

I, and I think many PCR members, already use CCleaner and are happy with it.

I also use CCleaner. Simple to use. Also, nothing beats the free tools included in Windows to do that already.

I'd seriously beware those 'clean-up' programs, I haven't come across one yet that is any use at all. In fact I've seen many cause problems.

Stick to Crap Cleaner, defrag, AV & Malware scans and Windows own clean up facilities.

Sorry Capn' but just saying as I've seen.

If anybody does decide to go for this freebie, watch out for the ASK toolbar that gets installed even though you have unchecked the check box :mad:

Yeah I seen what you siad, but as my post said, even though I unchecked the check box it still installed.After running the freebie, I say the only bit of it that works is the duplicate file bit.I still had to run Ccleaner to clear history etc. Oh well I had a look :)
