I found all the comments underneath fun reading, some are quite witty, while others really say their piece!!

I downloaded the latest version and doubleclicked it. A DOS box opened with the following error message.
Is it my Vista system or the program?
If yours is a 64 bit vista it may be your system
Recent versions of Windows NT for 64 bit architectures, including Windows XP Professional x64 Edition (x86-64) , Windows XP 64-bit Edition (IA-64), Windows Server 2003 (x64) and Windows Vista (x64), no longer include the NTVDM and can therefore no longer run MS-DOS (or 16-bit Windows) applications.
Another possiblity is a corrupt NTVDM file.

This is an error that I have not seen mentioned before with CCleaner.
Perhaps you could try to uninstall and then reinstall to see if that helps.
Did you save CCleaner in your ordinary program files?
Is everything you are trying to clean on the same drive as CCleaner is installed on?
Are your visual basic files up to date?

Welcome to the forum by the way

Well Dennis, strange to see that although I now live in Huddersfield UK, I was born in the same area of the UK as you.
I really find it interesting knowing where all the people on here are from, and like you, I imagine just what they would look like if I met them.

That's good link Dennis with a lot of good info.
Nice find

Some people have found that if they had a problem with CCleaner running in vista, that right-clicking the CCleaner desktop icon and choosing run as administrator solved it.
-
Snowmane, have you tried right-clicking on the CCleaner desktop icon and choosing run as administrator?

I have a Belkin wireless mouse and have never had any problems with it and wouldn't go back to a wired mouse.
As for the batteries, I just keep a couple of fully charged ones on my desk to slot in when the others run out. No big deal with a battery recharger
Four batteries have lasted 2 years so far.

Do you mean a freeware that will find things that you have deleted such as pictures, text files?
If so Recuva, by the makers of CCleaner, can be gotten here

I wouldn't think so.
Have you tried tools>compatability in WMM and unchecked some things in case of conflict?
EDIT....
Ignore that CeeCee forgot you said you tried that, I was busy searching google for you
-
Have you had a quick look here CeeCee just in case its something easy?

The backups only exist for issues scan and not for the cleaner scan.
You would have been offered the option of backing up the registry issues when you ran the scan. Is it the issues scan that you are talking about ?
Also check in options, advanced that the show prompt for it is ticked.

I have to do a System Restore to see it appear again, but when I shut down the computer and reboot, it disappears again.
So the second drive disappears after a reboot, but without running CCleaner?
It's a really strange problem you have and I am sure very annoying. Andavari and Firery are both very experienced users and have come up with very valid things to try.
The only thing I can come up with is to try Dial-a-fix in case something with permissions or windows are mixed up.
When it disappears, can you see it in safe mode?

I think you may find that everyone has their own idea of which browser is best. I think it's probably the one you feel most comfortable with using. If someone needs a certain feature and a certain browser supplies it, well that's going to be the best for them.
I personally like opera because it suits the way in which I use the internet, but I know people who swear by IE7.
Perhaps you could download opera and firefox portables to your usb stick and give them a try without the hassel of installing them on your computer.
Opera

Firefox portable

The help files are just a bit futher down the page.
You could put clamwin portable on at the same time so you have some av on.

I thought that in the demo i was told that anything deleted would be able to be restored??
Brad
This applies to the "issues" part of the cleaner, where you are offered the choice of making a backup of the reg entries which are saved in my docs by default. These can be restored by righ-clicking and choosing merge should you need to.
It may be of help for you to read the guide here which contains lots of info.

This may happen if you have auto complete form history checked in the windows tab under internet explorer.
Also to manage your cookies go into options>cookies, highlight the ones you want to keep in the delete column and use the middle arrow to transfer them to the keep column.
More info about using CCleaner can be found in the guide here

Just had a little look at your software, can appreciate the work you've put in, and judging by the amount shown on here you'll have work for many years!!

That was your call Lulu, as I think it was you who posted it originally.
Anyway, water under the bridge now.
