Favicon.ico issue

[zargon]

Hi all

 

I have been using CCleaner for a long time and regard it as a hi-qual utility for all my systems.

 

However I have found an issue that is a little bit irritating in the new version. (or at least I think it coincides with downloading Ver 2)

This issue did not occur with any previous version.

 

Using XP Pro SP2 and all patches. Using IE7 with all patches. CC 2.00.500

 

Issue is that the favicon that displays in the address bar behaves stangely. After cleaning, the Favicons for my homepages disappear. I have 2 homepages in tabs. (Google and my own website). They are replaced with the default blue "e" icon. When I start surfing the favicons for the visited sites all appear well. My homepage favicons then start using the favicons from other random cached sites e.g. google gets the bbc.co.uk favicon etc. This issue does not resolve itself and the correct favicons never regenerate.

 

I can resolve the problem by using the Browsing History Delete function in IE7's internet options panel. (Delete history, temp int files, cookies.) Everything then works perfectly until I next use CCleaner. Instantly the issue returns.

 

Relevant CC settings: In the "Internet Explorer" clean options the only one left UNticked is "last download location".

 

I realise that other forums are fairly packed with reports of IE7 and favicons behaving strangely, so it may be an IE7 issue - however it only started to occur on my system in the past week.

 

Anyone else have this issue?

I have a feeling that the bug fixes in the upcoming new version will resolve this issue - specifically the issue of "not deleting all temp i'net files".

Have noticed that a small number of files get left undeleted - amongst them are always some favicon.ico files.

Fingers crossed...

Happy to report that the problem is solved with the installation of latest version of CC - posted today 2.01.507

 

Many thanks to all involved.
