[Java]

Possibly a messed up user environment variables which you could check, well at least that's what I'd check first. If that isn't it you can possibly configure it via the Java Runtime's Control Panel icon which allows configuring it.

 

Don't know your Windows version since you didn't mention.

Edit: I see you're using WinXP.

 

The user temp folder location for WinXP user profiles is:

%USERPROFILE%\Local Settings\Temp

 

The WinXP system temp folder location is:

%SystemRoot%\TEMP

 

Thanks, but I'm really a noob at this. In the java control panel, there is no place I can see to change this.

 

Also, what does "%" mean?

would I do start/run %userprofile%\local settings\temp?

I don't see '%userprofile%' in windows explorer.

What am I looking for in these files?

 

Thanks and I apologize for not being so knowledgeable about this.

[Java]

Anybody know anything about Java?

My problems is:

The default directory for the log files is document and settings\username\local settings\temp.

Instead, my log files are going to windows\temp. ccleaner shows this as java files that are in windows\temp.

 

How can I change this? Or, is this a windows problem? Or, can someone point me in the right direction?

Thank you.

 

I have two computers and this only happens on one of them, both are running well though. Both use xp home sp3.

[Cookies list]

I use Opera as the default browser and I do keep some cookies.

 

The cookies that wouldn't delete were both IE and Opera cookies. The Opera cookies were not ones I elected to keep.

The cookies I elect to keep in Opera always show up in the 'cookies to delete' column and never go away when I clean, which is normal, it's always been that way. It's the cookies OTHER than the one I want to keep that I accumulate while surfing with Opera that won't go away.

And, it's also the cookies I get with IE.

As I said, version 2.33 works fine and I only had the problem when I updated to version 2.34.

I'm back to version 2.33 and will keep using that for now.

Thanks.

[Cookies list]

Thanks, maybe I'll try that. I'm using version 2.33 now and it works perfectly, version 2.34 does not.

 

No information was requested from me specifically, that was another poster.

If this is a problem, I'd like to know an official solution or if a fix is in the works in the next version.

 

I run two computers and both have the same issue.

 

xp home sp3

[Cookies list]

Yes, I know it was answered, but no solution yet.

 

Thank you.

[Cookies list]

So....

Any new info on this?

Just to clarify, in version 2.34, cookies in the 'to be deleted' column remain after a scan and clean. In version 2.33 they are gone after a scan and clean.

 

I use Opera 10.6 and in Opera, you can decide which cookies to keep and they stay in the 'to be deleted column' in ccleaner which is like it always has been.

Version 2.34 of ccleaner is different.

 

Just wondering...

[Cookies list]

EDIT:

I think this is definitely a version problem. Version 2.33 works flawlessly.

[Cookies list]

Similar problem here too.

Cookies listed in the delete column are still there after a clean

 

I'm using Opera 10.60 and have some cookies that I want to keep and they are there, but unlike the previous version of ccleaner, the unwanted cookies stay listed even though I deleted the history and cookies in internet options.

I even rebooted and they are still there.

[Flash Cookies]

DennisD,

Thanks, that probably is it. After cleaning up from my infection, it was recommended to get the latest flash, which I did through Opera. The other user on these computers uses IE, but it hasn't asked for the plugin yet so it has not been installed.

I was just alarmed at all the tracking flash cookies SAS found and want an easy way to keep them off even if they are probably benign.

 

Thanks.

[Flash Cookies]

please try this

start regedit.exe (start menu run regedit.exe)

press F3 key

paste this string into the search box

{D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000}

and press find

let us know if it doesn't find the string (this is the thing that CCleaner is looking for for flash to appear in the list)

 

if it doesn't find it

press ctrl+f

and paste

Shockwave Flash Object

into the find box

press find

when it finds it press shift+tab, this should highlight an entry in the left hand pane

right click on the highlighted item in the left pane and choose "copy key name"

paste the copied item into a reply in this thread

press f3 to find the next occurance

copy and paste the key names as above until regedit can't find anymore items

 

 

It found three occurances-'value not set'.

 

 

Also note, I have two computers and flash doesn't show up on either one in ccleaner/

[Flash Cookies]

What OS are you using

 

as stated above Flash cookies are cleaned via applications>multimedia>adobe flash player

 

so long as they are not on your cookies to save setting ccleaner (latest version) should clean them fine

 

Adobe flash does not show up in ccleaner though. Applications/multimedia/adobe flash.

I use Opera 10.6 and win xp sp3

[Flash Cookies]

Ok, thanks for the info

I have Win XP SP3

[Flash Cookies]

I recently had an infection which I cleared up and one of the tools I used was SAS which detected a lot of cookies: Adobe Flash Tracking Cookies. How can I make ccleaner detect these? Adobe Flash does not show up in

applications.

Thank you.

[check for updates/browser]

Try updating to Opera 10.52.

 

I did so this morning, so I'll see next time ccleaner has an update.

I'm trying to think back when this first occurred and I think it could have been when I updated to Opera 10.51 from 10.10.

 

Thanks.

[check for updates/browser]

Yes, it seems so. Even though I went to the Firefox options to make FF my default browser, if I click again on the "Check if FF is my default browser now" button, it says it isn't

 

[EDIT] Fixed by re-installing FF and rebooting.

 

Not so with Opera.

Opera 10.51 IS my default browser. When I update through the ccleaner program, Opera opens to my home page, then right away, IE opens and goes to the ccleaner web site. ccleaner is the only program I have that does this.

Something weird going on here and I don't know if it is an Opera problem or a ccleaner issue.

[check for updates/browser]

I've noticed on the last two updates, for me at least, that when it automatically goes for the new update (when available), Internet Explorer opens up, not my Opera which I have set as default browser.

Opera opens up first, then immediately, IE opens to the ccleaner website.

 

I'm using Opera 10.51. I don't know if it is an Opera problem, or if ccleaner some how defaults to IE when updating.

Can anyone help or explain?

 

Thank you.

[Opera 10/ downloads]

My bad, I see it now. Too bad you can't isolate it and clean SEPARATELY from the rest.

[Opera 10/ downloads]

This new version is supposed to remove temporary downloads from Opera, I don't see where it is doing this. Am I missing something? How do I select this?

 

Thank you.

[recurse/removeself]

Anyone?

[recurse/removeself]

I see that these are 'improved' in this latest version.

I use XP SP3 Home and I don't see how to use these features.

Can somebody direct me?

 

Thank you.

[uninstall]

Question:

When you choose to uninstall a program in ccleaner, does it just invoke the program's uninstall routine (the program you are trying to uninstall), or does ccleaner have its own uninstall routine or do something additional, like check for registry entrys and empty directories?

 

Thanks

[[2.19.900] Deleting Firefox Saved Passwords]

Guys, please note.

 

I don't think this is just a CCleaner issue.

 

I installed Firefox v3.0.10 yesterday, and without running CCleaner, I was unable to log in to any of my sites automatically.

 

I re-entered all my details again at 5 different places, made sure I wasn't clearing cookies within Firefox itself, and then closed it down.

 

Once again, without running CCleaner, I went back online and all my login details were gone again.

 

I binned Firefox completely, as it's either an unsecure old version, or a very problematic latest "secure" one. There are problems all over the internet at the moment with Firefox.

 

So bear a thought for CCleaners developers as the browser developers are moving the goalposts constantly, and it's one hell of a job keeping up with them.

 

Just out of interest, I have no problems with Opera.

 

+1 on the Opera. I tossed FF a few versions ago. No problems what so ever with Opera. IE8 seems a tad faster, but I'm keeping Opera as my default browser and version 10 looks to be better.

[Opera Recently Typed URLs]

The bottom line: Internet Explorer has a check-box item for cleaning "recently typed URLs", and since CCleaner now cleans the same data from Opera, the Opera section should also contain the same check-box.

 

Exactly.

[Opera Recently Typed URLs]

That's what I was trying to say.

Check this out: link

[Opera URLs]

I'm probably the dummy. It just sounded to me like there would be a seperate catagory like cookies, for example, but apparanly not and like you say, the URLs are in the history.

I didn't undrstand correctly. Looking at the analysis, I see it now.
