Download Crap Cleaner 1.08

Crap Cleaner’s feature leaves little to the imagination: it discards unnecessary files. For example, there are the usual Internet Explorer cache, cookies and history, temporary system files, the recycle bin and log files, but also unnecessary files of frequently used programs such as eMule, Kazaa, Office XP, Nero, WinRAR and Adobe Acrobat are cleaned up. There is no help function, but the website does have a mini FAQ to find.

However, some caution is advised with this program: it does not contain an undo function. Also, files are immediately discarded when you press the ‘Run Cleaner’ button. So a scan is not done first, after which you can choose which files you really want to delete. There is, however, the option in the options to exclude certain cookies from deletion.
