Dustbuster might be a great program...if you speak Italian.

I just installed 2.9.5.1 on a comp I am servicing, once installed, double click on the shortcut & it does it's own thing, leave it alone until it finishes. Starts off with one screen, then 2, then 1 & if you are paying attention at the end, you will see how many MB's were removed. Or, make a note of the space available before & after using. I just removed 668 mb.

If you want the non Italian version, I can upload to a site of your or my choice.

I really didn't like it. 2.9.5.1 unpacks with Universal Extractor to run as a no install.
I can cope with it being in Italian - I refuse to cope with not knowing what it is up to
It maxed out my CPU with no option to 'stop' apart from Ctrl+Alt+Del. After a few minutes it told me it had removed 7 files - under 1MB. I assume it scanned the 760GB of drives I had available. I don't know. And I don't know what its scan criteria are. Does one get more 'user control' if one installs it?
A 'cleaner' has to let me have the final word on what gets 'cleaned'. Is there a way of getting this app to let me have the final word?
