Few questions about CCleaner


shy

Recommended Posts

I recently found out that although I don't use Firefox as a browser, it is tied to my usage of Mozilla

Thunderbird. It has been saving up cookies without my knowledge. Although I do a clean of my PC almost every day, I am not sure it is also looking at Firefox and not just Internet Explorer. I see a

heading for Internet Explorer, but none for Firefox. I see that Firefox is included in my CCleaner software, so what must I do to include it in the cleaning operation?

 

Also, I have recently changed my email address from Comcast to ATT. How to I change my registration to reflect this change?

 

Thanks for any help,

Shy, when I get home (or at the latest tommorow during work ;) )I'll install a copy of thunderbird and getting a better feel for why the mozilla section (under apps) is not showing on your ccleaner and/or make you a winapp2.ini entry. can you please (in the meantime) let me know your Operating system version(windows 7, vista, XP, 98) (and if you are not using the latest version of thunderbird that as well)

 

ADVICE FOR USING CCleaner'S REGISTRY INTEGRITY SECTION

DON'T JUST CLEAN EVERYTHING THAT'S CHECKED OFF.

Do your Registry Cleaning in small bits (at the very least Check-mark by Check-mark)

ALWAYS BACKUP THE ENTRY, YOU NEVER KNOW WHAT YOU'LL BREAK IF YOU DON'T.

thundercookies! I'll grab it now and edit in anything I find later.

 

Edit: I see nothing for 'Cookies' relating to thunderbird, but there are user specific cache folders. Thunderbird doesn't have a browser built in, so I don't see how you'd obtain cookies from running it. Please enlighten us?

Yeah, see I think in order to get a cookie you'll need to recieve a HTML email (though even then not so sure)
