The peoples republic of dipsticks have called their No Nonsense lawyers to hunt you down for not using Nonsense® without the registered trademark.
-
Someone started using Common Sense with the trademark tacked onto the end of it I think during some firewall discussion or some other security discussion on Hydrogenaudio.org, and well it stuck. The trademark at the end could be read in different ways I suppose as some people don't use Common Sense and just write some bull crap that makes No Sense.
No Sense aka Nonsense® is for people making stupid suggestions without proof or any knowledge of a subject and seems to be in more abundance than Common Sense. Common Sense shall however always prevail.

Jetico PF didn't impress me when I tried it out last year, funny I don't even remember that much about it, other than being unimpressed.
-
Run RegSeeker and search for a .cpl file that's related to it, maybe you'll find one maybe you won't, if you find it just rename such as "broken.cpl" to "broken-.cpl". You could then do a registry search for it using RegSeeker.

I can't remove it. I broke it so that it wasn't annoying me anymore, but now I'm annoyed because I can't remove it.
Try Unlocker to delete it.
-
Any negatove consequences to secure file deletion?
I'll answer this one. The only negative side-effect would be if you accidently deleted something important. Once the file is shredded there's slim to any chances you'd be able to recover it.

Let us make a deal here: we only download and install a new version of CCleaner if it does not contain bloatware. And we tell this intention to all our friends and acquintances.
I was already doing that since it started included the toolbar. Funny thing is the basic and slim installer combined weigh in as a smaller download together versus the one with the toolbar. I'm just glad and fortunate that there's versions still available that will fit onto one floppy disk without me having to split the installer into two halves.
-
I've made InnoSetup installs before, and it's not hard at all to make other versions of an installer. It takes minutes, not days.
Agreed tenfold!

Another annoyance:
I'm on dial-up and for some reason from time to time Windows will forget my logon password.
-
Nothing was ever meant to be a battle, it was just for the sake of Common Sense. Anyways I hope this thread doesn't go to hell.
-
I was talking about the outside of the screen. Are you talking about the inside of it? Maybe not.
-
Yes anything stupid yet funny should go in here such as jokes on a farts whim.
Dark Side. That reminds from watching this weeks My Name Is Earl when Randy was at a yardsale and asked the ole man with the voice machine to say Luke I am your father!
-
I use the same everywhere. But some dipstick is using my username on another forum.
-
Well I guess that's me.
I have IE7 right now. I'll try if you help me Andavari.
I'll help.
-
I think it's been suggested before, however it's good to bring back up.
Nice to see your from the Earth, Milky Way.
-
From what MP_handler just explained, that pain in the ass procedure is indeed a very valid reason to stay very clear of Norton AV.
-
Well you have two options then, as I can't help you if you don't understand how to begin making the winapp2.ini entry because I'm not going to install IE7 beta 2 to do it, sorry:
- Plead to a member that uses IE7 beta 2 and whom knows how to write the needed removal routines into winapp2.ini.
- Wait for CCleaner to be updated to officially include IE7. You of course will most likely have to wait for IE7 final which will probably be months away, that is if MrG the CCleaner developer doesn't feel the need to include a cleaning routine for a beta product that may change in its final release version.

I actually think he's rather decent myself, I remember watching a show that he was on some years ago on public television which made me wonder why so many people spew hate remarks towards him. But I suppose if we were rich and in the public eye multitudes of people would talk s**t about us too.
-
No real "fix" for that, other than turning it off, but at least you can isolate the problem.
Kick it several times! If that doesn't work bribe kobrakommander56 for some of his C4 cache and blow it up.
-
Well, I am at a loss. I can't figure out how to make winapp2 work...and I did read your instructions. I just don't understand.
Post the entry you've been toying with in winapp2.ini.
Note: Since I don't have IE7 beta 2 installed I can only tell you if you've made input errors into winapp2.ini just by eyeballing it, I can't confirm correct registry or directory locations.
-
There's also DeepBurner Free. I think it's unfarely labeled as adware as it doesn't phone home and only displays a couple of small ad's to upgrade to DeepBurner Pro. Note: I tested it and it can't create gapless audio CD's, well at least it couldn't on my two systems, however there's Burrrn for creating only audio CD's.
-
If you temporarily enable Admin rights on your Limited User account "that may allow the index.dat files to be deleted."
As already stated by burtman CCleaner adds an entry into the registry that I assume only an account with Admin rights will be able to do, it is what allows the index.dat files to be deleted upon rebooting.
-
CCleaner doesn't find all those different junk extensions because it's mainly an application cleaner which means it doesn't hunt out .bak, .tmp files, etc., that may be hidden in other folders. It's also another reason why CCleaner is safer than SysMech.
You can however enable CCleaner to delete .tmp, .bak or whatever extension you want using a customized winapp2.ini entry you'd have to create for yourself. To figure out how to use winapp2.ini you can download it from here.

The problem though is if MrG doesn't add a Donate button into the application most people will never even think about it.
Edit: A prime place to put such a button in near the top in the ugly ass grey blended area to the far right of the icon and system stats.
