CCleaner Installation Behavior

CCleaner for Windows CCleaner Windows Bug Reporting
1

I currently manage desktop configurations for my company and have been looking at integrating CCleaner into our baseline working images. In working on this I have noticed that the installer for CCleaner only installs the start menu/program files/desktop shortcuts for the user that installs the programs. Additionally, because I automate the installation of the application, I no longer have the ability to remove the option to install the Yahoo! toolbar.

So I guess my question would be: Is there a way to silently install the application WITHOUT installing the toolbar (granted I realize that it is a revenue generator for your product). Additionally, is this behavior of installing to a single user profile intended or just a bug that was not noticed by others yet?

There are other builds available that do not install the toolbar ... http://www.piriform.com/ccleaner/builds

The profile installation is deliberate (I presume!). However this only affects the program shortcut. If you're creating a base image you could easily move this to 'All Users' and have the functionality available to any logged-on user. Note that users requiring all CCleaner functionality may require admin access - this may be further complicated if you're running a strict GP on a domain.
