Thanks for the reply David.
My apologies to CCleaner software vendors.
I had googled CCleaner Download and used the first item on the page named "CCleaner Free Download"
I got a web page as per the attached. As you can see it doesn't refer to any software name so I assumed it was CCleaner
I clicked on down load I down loaded a file named RegCureSetup_501_RW and installed it.
I guess I'm getting old and stupid

Greeting:
CCleaner web site it states that CCleaner is "Free". On the CNET web site it states it is "Free" Everyone one says that CCleaner is free.
CCleaner web site even mentions that people can donate $$$ using Pay Pal.
However, I down loaded CCleaner and installed it this date. I did a scan and then I got a message that something to the effect that in order for CCleaner to correct the supposedly numerous errors on my computer the software had to be registered. I filled in all required info and what should pop up but a window demanding $29.95 for this Free software.
No doubt that the software is worth $29.95 but think thier sales tactics is terrible. Most software vendors are up front in that they give their customers a choice of a free trial period or to buy it and state the price. One doesn't even get a trial period with thier software.
If CCleaner is such great software, they shouldn't have to use trickery to sell it.
Cleanup after uninstallation?

I use the Freeware "Revo Uninstaller"
It first uses the software's uninstaller to uninstall the software and then it checks the computer for left over bit of junk.
It then shows you what it has found and ask you if you want it deleted.
I've been using it for several month and I really like it.
