Plus all the bug fixes and cleaning improvements you've come to expect from Piriform!

First the positive, the improved inclusions screen is excellent, as is the improved context menu options.

BUT it says "Improved Firefox History cleaning" but it still doesn't clear the sidebar history, which I thought would be the fix.

Also can I request just a little more detail in the changelog than just "Improved....", that changelog doesn't give any clue about what has actually changed in the FF Database compacting, OpenOffice cleaning, free space wiping (this in particular would be nice to know as CC is still playing catch up a little in that area) etc. Apart from wanting to know so you can check it out, its good to know so you can keep an eye out for any bugs and check the improvements work correctly.

(And I know I scream this in vain with every release but I'm not the only one, please can we have the option of having the detailed results screen by default. Pleeeease :D )

This is the first time CCleaner has removed something I definitely didn't want removed.

This version cleans out the Opera "Favicons" located here:

C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Local Settings\Application Data\Opera\Opera\icons

If you don't want to lose these add the "icons" folder to CCleaners "exclude" feature.

Opera should have more cleaning options (checkboxes) as the other browsers haves.. :/

Thanks for the refinement of the include options screen.

I'm sure that all users will find it as easy to understand and use as I have.

For the last few versions of Ccleaner, compacting Chrome database stops at 96%. It eventually completes the job in about 4 mins. I have written bug reports. I had hoped the lastest release would address this, but no..... It was all right a few weeks ago so maybe I will go back to that version.

Many thanks MrG and Piriform for the continued great work.

The FAQ should be updated to indicate that CCleaner supports Windows 7. I just discovered this product and am pleased with how well it works with Windows 7, but I hesitated to try it because the FAQ indicates support for Vista only.

Good point, the documentation gives a much better update on the system requirements.

How come on the "free" version I cannot download the new update?

Hi oldmom, and welcome to Piriform.

All versions of CCleaner are free. Try downloading it from one of these links, and if still no success, can you try a different browser?
