  1. Thanks for all the info.... I am going to try excluding Firefox from CCleaner and see if I get the same results as you. I don't have Slogger but I do have other Firefox add-ons which perhaps function in a similar way. Obviously I don't want to exclude Firefox from CCleaner completely (there would be no point running CCleaner at all in that case) but I think your suggestion of CC excluding certain files when it loads is a good one. Let's hope someone picks up on the idea.
  2. Happy guy, My solution of moving CC to a desktop folder only worked once (which was the same effect as closing CC and then reopening it) and is now back to its usual time delay. Because it starts up quickly immediately after it's been opened and closed, I still think it's something memory-related to do with loading the program. Maybe CCleaner needs a cleaner for itself
  3. What I have done is move the entire folder of CCleaner files to my desktop and CCleaner opens up instantly from there, so I guess I'll stick with that. I have the full version but didn't install the Yahoo toolbar. Thanks for your replies. It's nice to know that people are willing to help
  4. One thing I forgot to add, which may be a clue..... if I close CCleaner and then immediately open it again, it opens straight away. So is it a memory-related problem?
  5. Hi hazelnut and thank you for replying. No, being in Safe Mode makes no difference. I have also tried opening CCleaner with the Spybot S&D TeaTimer disabled but that doesn't change anything. I have moved CC to another directory (and deleted the desktop shortcut) - still the same time delay. Task Manager shows no other applications or processes working while I am waitng for CC to open. It does show a huge CPU peak from CCleaner itself, but that's it. I'm stumped. I would love to know what is causing the delay. All I can think of is firewall, AV program or something like that, but if that is the case then why aren't other people having this same problem?
  6. Have you tried uninstalling and reinstalling CCleaner? Sometimes that gets rid of annoying little glitches.
  7. I have no problem with Firefox. The only box I have unticked is "Save Form Information", just to make my life easier. I would agree that Compact Databases should be ticked, as not doing it seems to be contrary to what CCleaner is designed to do.
  8. If I use my desktop shortcut or even if I go to Program Files and open it from there, CCleaner takes at least 3 minutes, and sometimes more, to open up so that I can do a scan. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling with the latest version but the problem still exists. My husband has CCleaner on his PC and it opens instantly when he clicks on it. Does anyone have a cure for my problem? I am using Windows XP on a Toshiba Satellite Pro laptop. I've used CCleaner with XP on a PC without any trouble, so I'm guessing the problem is something to do with my laptop but no other programs are slow to start, so why CCleaner? Are there any programs that CCleaner is known to conflict with, eg Spybot S&D (the TeaTimer perhaps?) or AVG? Before I start experimenting and changing things, I'd like to know if anyone else has had this problem and how they solved it.
