The systray icon is there. It's a grey brick wall.

Yeah, put the font size back to 96DPI.

Yeah, switching to Inno Setup would do a lot of people a huge favor.

Agreed!

In a recent bad move from the developers of the Crap Cleaner (CCleaner) software they have started to bundle Yahoo! Toolbar. Many long time users, pc technicians, and even new users have been complaining about the recent addition of the Yahoo! Toolbar. With the inclusion of the toolbar the download size has more than doubled. But this is not going without notice. Earlier today Softpedia revoked CCleaner's 100% Clean (No Spyware, No Adware, No Viruses) award. The Softpedia staff explain the reason for the removal of the award in clear red letters to warn users who may wish to download the software. CCleaner now contains Yahoo! toolbar, therefore the award has been removed and the program marked as adware. Perhaps the loss of the Softpedia award and the outcries of the users will help the developers of CCleaner to remove the toolbar and better listen to their users. Do you think the developers of CCleaner will listen? No. After taking over three months to solve a simple bug that was wiping out settings for MSN Messenger despite a solution being posted on their forums, the removal of the toolbar more than likely won't be a top priority on their list either.

Many users agree with you, especially techs. Crap Cleaner now comes with crap. They have builds they are without the toolbar; but that took "hours" to deploy and is rather hidden. My Anti-Malware packages do not have the toolbar, and any time I link to CCleaner it will be for the version without the toolbar.

Either that or totally trash the toolbar versions.

http://www.ccleaner.com/downloadbin.asp?f=1 I just tested them on Jotti and only the version with the toolbar detected CCleaner with a trojan. Yes, previous versions were clean. Now we get bloat and crap with Crap Cleaner.

Have you tried the toolbar free versions? I wouldn't be surprised if they don't have that same problem.

It's registry based, unfortunately. All of the OCX are Visual Basic files, thus making CCleaner dependant on them. CCleaner could be a lot better as a Delphi application and strictly using *.ini settings; this could maximize portability. With the addition of the toolbar, CCleaner is going downhill. Here's the key to export for the settings. HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\VB and VBA Program Settings\CCleaner

And just why does it take "a few hours"? Should take a matter of minutes. I've compiled many setup applications and they take minutes to do. Hours is a rather lame excuse to get people to download a version with a toolbar to make a few bucks. Better yet, remove the toolbar completely.

Still waiting for the "Toolbar Free" version. Gotta love bloat and crap.

Actually it fixed an option where all personal settings got removed.

Google SymNRT and use it. Also get Dial-a-fix and run that fully after you use SymNRT.

Few, if any, want toolbars. Many do not.

Thank you, and same to you. I've noticed that I am terrible in math. I can quickly learn English and am as picky as DjLizard about things of that nature. Give me a computer and I feel like I can do anything.

The only thing getting worse is your constant posts. I believe Forum Nuisance is a nice title for you. Resurrecting old threads, not taking the hints from mods, flaming members, not taking the hint from plain english messages that tell you what to avoid doing.

25 years of age, 26 a little later this year. I have ADHD and a few memory issues myself due to a birth trauma and the ADHD.

Yeah but people still hate toolbars. Educated users know how bad they are.

The best thing to do would be to offer the main download without the toolbar, and the secondary as one with the optional toolbar if you must have it. If you want browser integration, why not just make it so you can add a small button to IE instead of this bloated toolbar? Could even make a CCleaner *.xpi for Firefox and Mozilla browsers.

Would you believe Firefox is easier to learn than IE?

Shouldn't be there to begin with because toolbars are CRAP.

No, it's one of those half assed build-it-yourself website based toolbars. (There's some crap site to go to that lets you build toolbars for your website.)

The toolbar is junk, spam as far as I'm concerned. Last I checked Crap Cleaner was supposed to clean and REMOVE crap, not add it into your computer.
