Giving on terms is still giving?
So if I give you 50$ on the terms, that you give me 100$, is it still giving?
If I give you a Big Mac, on the condition that you give me your first born son, is it still giving?
No. That's called offering to trade ... and I don't see MrG doing that.
But even in trade ... people should accept or decline graciously. No one is entitled to another's property.

CCleaner is only free as in beer, you cannot inspect its source code and inner workings, you cannot modify it, etc.
Since the download page says "The following builds are for system admins and advanced users.
They are not for distribution or mirroring.", I am not even sure you're allowed to distribute anything other than the toolbar-bundled version. So much for free, eh?
Freeware is a gift.
The giver offers it on their terms ... and why shouldn't they, it's their property.
The receiver, only has two options ... accept or decline, and in either case, should do so graciously.

Use an external hard drive. You can get a USB 80GB (or bigger) for less than $100. Keep multiple images, replacing them alternately.
With a hard drive, you can run the backup unattended.
Store the drive in a safe place. I keep my 160GB in a firesafe.

I don't know how FireFox stores cookies but this may be related to a common problem with Internet Explorer and this thread may help http://forum.ccleaner.com/index.php?showto...1&hl=cookie

??? Did you mean "use someone else's CD"? Using someone else's key would be illegal.and my solution isyou can format and use someone elses key, all you have to do then is call MS and tell them your details and they'll activate it for ya

I agree with you guys but artistic's problem is

Do you mean something like MJ Registry Watcher ?

Their main website still has problems but updates, although running a bit slow, seem to be working.
-
They redesigned their website and, although it may just be the heavy traffic, everything seems to be a little buggy.

I've had the leftover folder issue ever since version 5.0 and confirmed it in several "how to update Java" articles before deleting them. -
Uninstalling the old version using Add or Remove Programs will leave behind a folder (in this case C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.5.0_08 or older) which should be manually deleted.

You didn't say what app provided the power meter so there's a slight chance CCleaner may be partially at fault.
It's possible that your battery may be charging but you are getting a bad status report.
I once had a laptop where the utility that provided enhanced battery information (stupidly) required a file in the temp folder. If you have a similar setup, and you cleared the temp folder ...

I can understand he want todo a burglary. But why in a thong?

If you mean a bunch of registry keys in HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\App Management\ARPCache\ I've had that (I think) ever since I started using CCleaner.

I haven't tried it myself but A.F.7 Merge Your Files may be of interest.

* 2nd of all, you need 15mb or more of hard drive space for defragging. So you may need to make some free space.
I belive the requirement is 15 percent freespace.

"Canned air" is not air at all. It's entirely propellant ... either difluoroethane or tetrafluoroethane. Dust Off is difluoroethane, which should be banned ... this was circulated by our safety officer at work Hazard alert
EDIT: If you use canned air, make sure it's tetrafluoroethane which is non-flammable (but don't inhale the damn stuff).

You could just disable thumbnail caching.

Most wireless access points have connections for two antennae. If hers does, consider using an omni-directional antenna for general coverage and a directional antenna pointed specifically at the boat dock.... She can maintain a 'good' signal throughout her house and on her back porch, but loses signal when she goes to her boat dock about 150' from her porch. -
Instead of Ctrl+Alt+Del, has she tried right-clicking the Taskbar and using the menu? (Just in case it's something simple like a sticky key.)

There was some major snafu with Microsoft's server this past Tuesday and automatic updates weren't working ... although manual updates were.
