At the start of December, CCleaner was downloaded for the 1 billionth time! That's an amazing 1,000,000,000 installations of CCleaner. A milestone that only a few other software titles have hit. (Firefox to name one)
It's been 8 years since we released version 1.0 and with the help of our dedicated users, we've managed: constant improvements, 47 language translations and a massively expanding user base in over 200 countries with over 10 million new installations a month! We can't even calculate the amount of disk space saved.
Thanks again to all our loyal fans, and we'll be announcing some new Cloud and Mobile products in the New Year.
Since its first release CCleaner has deleted 380 semi-trucks (18 wheeler) packed full of 500GB hard disks.
While it didn't actually remove the trucks or disk drives; the amount of data it has erased would have filled so many drives world-wide you would need 380 trucks to haul it away.
I think this is great. However there seems to be failure among customer service and support. I odered this for my home computer on the 12-3-12 and never recieved registration key so i could not download . Wells Fargo Has proof that piriform took the money. When i called customer service i spoke to someone in Dallas who assured me that support would contact me and that i would get an email confirmingthat a refund has happen. this was to happen yesterday 12-10-12. Today is the 11th I would like for piriform to fix this so that tyou can maintain the high priase you feel you deserve.
Good News A company called cleverbridge has refunded my money. I will try this agian and hope i can get what i paid for. It is interesting that it went to an email account that i hardly ever use. If i had not of checked i would still be bitching.

Cleverbridge does handle the transactions, so you might have gotten the right software after all. That link in post 14 above will get you on the right track to get the paid version, if you were not already there.
Now that its settled, welcome, and hang around and let the forum members and the developers know how Ccleaner is doing.
A billion installations does not mean a billion running copies. The number is somewhat less. And what about 1 user who's been with the "program" since day 1, that's perhaps 30 installs right there.
I took all this into account when I did my calculation.
