[mozilla browsers?]

That's it! Thank you sir!

 

Anyone have any recent experience with K-Meleon? Is it a worthy alternative to Firefox? Is it buggy?

 

Thanks again.

 

 

Been using it for a year now, my default browser, faster than Firefox but little support for extensions.

 

Not a single problem so far. As far as I am concerned it's the best out there.

[Secure Deletion STILL Not Working...]

I have the exact same problem as the original poster, using 7 passes on Win XP. ALL the deleted files are recoverable. If I use secure deletion in Tune Up Utilities then the files are gone for good.

 

I have found a little utility called Eraser which clears the free space, this works well and found in excess of 17,000 deleted files on my C: drive. But is this not what CCleaner should be doing?

[CCleaner secure delete]

I use CCleaner with the NSA 7 Pass option enabled.

 

After running CCleaner to clean the Hard disk Recuva (and other File retrieval software) is able to retrieve the files deleted by CCleaner.

 

Is this right?

 

If it is, then what is the point of using secure delete?

 

Or am I missing something?

 

I am using CCleaner v2.02.527 on XP SP2

[Analyzed items list BLANK!]

Loaded CC 133.382

 

Working fine, no problems.

[Analyzed items list BLANK!]

I also had this problem on 98SE using the latest version of CCleaner. I tried uninstalling and reverting to an older version and the problem remained.

 

I then noticed that I had the same problem with Control Panel/Add Remove Programmes

 

The Add remove list showed correctly in 3rd party utilities but the first item (Outlook Express) had no name, and showed as a blank item. I added a name, using TuneUp Utilities.

 

Opened Add Remove in control panel and under the first item were a number of blank lines. These relate to, I assume, uninstall entries that had been previously removed, the valid entries had simply scrolled off the bottom of the window.

 

I removed the blank lines by selecting each in turn and clicking Add/Remove. Windows claimed that this was an invalid entry and removed it. Repeated untill all the blank lined had gone.

 

Once the list displayed correctly I ran CCleaner and it worked perfectly.

 

I don't pretend to understand why Add/Remove list would affect CCleaner, but it does.

 

Scary.
