Try deselecting Cleaner Settings > Applications > Office. It seems to wipe several Office settings.

I believe that, once CCleaner is set up to clean the necessary folder, you can hide the protected system files again. It's safer and less visible clutter.

Recycle Bin is just a desktop link. The real folder should be in D:\RECYCLER\ and have a folder name like S-1-5-21-343818398-2146017927-1417001333-13029 In Windows Explorer > Tools > Folder Options > View, you may have to deselect "Hide protected operating system files" in order to see it.

I could be wrong but I think CCleaner only cleans the drive/partition to which it is installed. To clean another drive/partition, you should be able to use Custom Files and Folders.

This thread Does ccleaner work with win98? may be relevant.

The cookies are actually only in one place, the other folder is just another view displaying the filename in a different syntax. If you copy a cookie, e.g., Cookie:username@news.google.ca from C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files to any other folder, it'll turn into username@news.google[1].txt ... the same name as shown in C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Cookies. If you delete a cookie in C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files, it will disappear from C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Cookies. If you do the reverse, it won't disappear but it won't be accessible, i.e., you'll get the error message "Cannot read from the source file or disk." Because of this asymmetry, it's possible for the two lists to get out of synch and look different .

I'm not on either side of this argument but I don't like to see pseudo-scientific arguments. The earth is slowing down at the rate of about 0.005 seconds per year per year. If the earth is 4.6 billion year old, this means that the day started out about 14 hours long. The molten blob at that time would have been slightly more oblate than it is now but the earth is still a semi-molten blob so it's shape adjusts and the continents still move. Note that Jupiter's day is less than 10 hours and although it's an oblate, it's not obvious. The equatorial radius/polar radius ratio is only 1.07.

In our office, we're testing OCR scanning documents into PDF. Not only is the text searchable and selectable (great when you're doing research), the file sizes are about 10% of an image file.

Actually, I no longer clean cookies with CCleaner. I found that CleanCache lets you list cookies to save in a way that better handles those that alternate during sessions, e.g., news.google[1] then news.google[2] then back to news.google[1]. Because the save list will retain the name of a cookie you don't currently have, you just list the whole rotation pattern (I had one site that went from [1] to [3] before repeating).

It's not CCleaner's fault. MSN changed the cookie name (last week?). It's no longer passport ... you can remove that from your Save list. The one that saves your username is login.live

Now I understand.

Agreed, but krit said you were monitoring other people. Can what they do get you in trouble? Can you get in trouble for monitoring them (I don't know your privacy laws)? If their confidential info gets leaked because of your actions, are you liable?

1. Anything you send over the internet leaves a trail of copies you can't control. Your keylogger sends the logs by e-mail so there will be copies on the sending e-mail server, the receiving e-mail server, etc. Your ISP will retain their copies for several years (they are required to by law). 2. Various government agencies monitor e-mail traffic for keywords. 3. Are you sure you can trust the program? The tale is apocryphal but ... supposedly there was a freeware file shredder that e-mailed a copy of the files first.

OK, I can understand that. I'd still go for logging to a local file ... once it's sent over the internet, you can't ever be sure it won't surface someplace.

I'm not trying to be a smarta** but ... you intentionally installed what amounts to spyware? ... and you don't know which program it is?

Did you remember to enable Cleaner > Windows > Advanced > Custom Files and Folders? See screenshot

etiennehu Doesn't look like the correct path. Which version of Windows and which version of Office are you using? EDIT: Oops! The most obvious possibility ... did you remember to enable Cleaner > Windows > Advanced > Custom Files and Folders?

Have you clocked your connection speed against a test site? Any difference in performance if you use the one wired computer versus one wireless versus all three at the same time?

Assuming it's not a rights issue, one possible explanation is that it's running. Use Task Manager > Processes to check. If it is running, End Process and then delete the file and folder. This may mean there's a shortcut in the C:\Documents and Settings\[uSER]\Start Menu\Programs\Startup or C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Start Menu\Programs\Startup which needs to be deleted.

The one that's been in the news lately is the Gospel of Judas, Lost Gospel

Check the file properties to see if the files are still compressed. If I recall correctly, with NTFS compression, when you decompress a folder, the subfolders and files within are not decompressed unless you select that option.

The "phantom" CD/DVD problem is common and you will find various references on the internet. The cause has been attributed to the drive hardware, drivers, burner software, etc. but I've never seen a definitive answer. I used to have the problem sporadically until (for other reasons) I happened to change the drive letter assignments using Control Panel > Computer Management > Disk Management > Change Drive Letter and Paths. It could have been coincidental but is a harmless fix to try. This may be too obvious but did you check the settings under Control Panel > System > System Restore?

I don't know the app at all. Does the "Reserve 10 MB" mean you've set the file or folder limit to 10 MB? Even recording at a low bit rate, 43 minutes could easily exceed 10 MB. Consider that a typical music CD is about 400 MB.

I repeat ... You said it' a CD-ROM. ROM means Read Only Memory. To write to a CD you need a CD (or DVD) writer.
