CCleaner

C cleaner or as alot of people know it as Crap Cleaner is basically a program that clears the gunk out of your computer. It takes all your temperary internet files ( Web history ) All your cookies and no not the chocolate chips ones. Cookies is an online term for things that remember your information. For example when you go to a site and your already logged in or your name is there that is a cookie. Once it has all these little web related things it will go and clear out your recycle bin. Delete unused shortcuts. Like a shortcut to microsoft word on your desktop that you no long have. So simply it just deleted everything that you do not need which speeds up the computer.
Step 1
http://www.ccleaner.com/

Step 2
Click the download link. You will get 2 options save/run, select run.

Step 3
You should then get the first page of a setup wizard












Follow the basic steps just keep hitting next until you come to a screen that gives you multiple options on the running of ccleaner. See below;














My advice to you is to tke advantagere of all these options. they are all very useful to have. If you already have a yahoo toolbar like most people have you mya want to deselect the toolbar option as if you dont you may end up with two. Once you have decided what you would like out of this program click install.
The program is now installed. I suggest that you do a scan via this program daily. On resonably new computers this will only take 20-30 second. If you have an old one it could take anywere from 30-3 minutes. The timespan of the scan will also depend time from the last scan.

Keep an eye out for my next post of AVG installation
