programming an utility application

hi,

I wanted to make an utility/cleaner application like ccleaner for a long time. I want to do it in Java so that it can be cross-platform. I really dont have many exotic features in mind, for now i only wish to implement a few functionality- like cleaning a cache, recent places and browser history. Can someone help me on this? any ideas on how to get started or link to resources will be much much appriciated......

                                                                                                                                                             Thanks in Advance</p>

Uhhh no, because this is an official company forum
