HP in that case must stand for Help Please if the comp needs fixed.

That's what I was wondering as well.

I like the new program look. And regardless of what anyone may think I actually miss the now dead Exit button. --- Rest In Peace:

You don't by any chance have the My Documents folder mapped as a temp directory do you. To find out where your system temp directory is mapped to start a command prompt and type in: dir %temp% It will list the location of the temp directory. Another thing make sure you haven't inputted the My Documents folder in CCleaner under: Options->Custom

To clear something up, what exactly did you push: Cleaner tab - Analyze: Only detects what is removable, doesn't actually delete anything. Cleaner tab - Run Cleaner: Deletes what is removable. Issues tab - Scan for Issues: Only finds invalid registry data and invalid shortcuts. Issues tab - Fix selected issues: Removes the invalid registry data and invalid shortcuts that Scan for Issues listed.

Ha ha ha. Very good Professor Tarun!

The recent problems you've had sound like something is going on in your PC, possibly malware related, but that won't be known unless you post a HijackThis log. If you haven't done so already read this thread follow its instructions, and then post a HijackThis log for analysis in the proper forum section which is here.

I've never heard of CCleaner wanting to delete actual files in My Documents. As a precaution against accidental lose for everyday computing you should be making backups to another disk or a removable medium such as CD-RW, CD-R. I'd recommend before you actually attempt to clean that you post of screenshot of what the Analyze button lists so we can better assist you. To give us a screenshot of only the open CCleaner program press at the same time on the keyboard the following buttons: Alt PrtScn

Well that would be a thread or post I've missed, however as a precaution every 5 or so new versions I do a clean install.

Now he/she is going to want to know what a hunger satisfying candy bar is.

Are you serious?

That's one reason why I just over-install newer versions, hence the settings remain intact. It would be nice if CCleaner could export the settings to a .reg file just like WinRAR does, and if doing a clean install it could recognise that .reg file and automatically import it again just like WinRAR does.

Via CCleaner's Tools->Startup you can happily go about messing with startup programs. A much safer approach versus deleting a startup entry from the registry is to click Start->Run->Type in: MSCONFIG With MSCONFIG you can safely disable a startup program without permanently deleting it. All antivirus programs have the ability to allow you to disable their resident protection because the vendor's know there will be situations when the resident protection has to be disabled, such would be the case when installing a Windows service pack. If you don't want antivirus with resident protection you may want to look into ClamWin Free Antivirus. It's freeware and its daily signature file is updated almost everday.

Now Winamp v5.111 Full has been released: http://download.nullsoft.com/winamp/client...mp5111_full.exe

Well if Winamp third-party add-on's are a worry, and for those that dislike it give a powerhouse of a media player named foobar2000 a try.

Perhaps it's an attempt to be funny, however I don't get it. What have you been smoking?

I'm slipping, I was way off! Edit: Although I must say the toolbar is what completely tricked me.

Microsoft Windows XP Royale Theme by Microsoft (673 KB) - download Note: To download it you have to use Internet Explorer and Genuine Windows Advantage. 1. Click the Continue button to validate your Windows installation on the first page you get to. 2. From the list of downloads, click royale.zip. The package inside of the .zip will automatically install the theme for you.

Starting with v2.16 the integrated update feature no longer was able to check for updates anymore, at least in my case it has failed each time. Neither of their websites this one and this one have been updated for months to reflect that there's a newer version other than v2.15 available, hence the reason I listed the FileHippo.com URL for downloading. Edit: Just put my feet in my mouth. Now v2.18 can check for updates again.

I completely agree!

Lol. That's completely original!

It's because of the chosen bitrate. The encoder has no ideal that it isn't dealing with a file ripped from an audio CD, so it goes on about it's business of attempting to not throw as many bits of information away to try and retain some quality.

CWShredder 2.18 download (520 kb): http://www.filehippo.com/download_cwshredder.html Known Issues: CWShredder.exe is intended to run on Windows 2000/XP/2003 Operating systems only. Windows ME/9x/NT4 operating system may not have the appropriate system libraries to run the application. To lazy to type all the info in that it finds, so here's a screenshot.:

The old 2.95 wasn't all that bad and is what I have on my Win98 system since Winamp 5 will choke a Win9x system since it was originally developed for Win2k and above.
