    norton cleansweep. help

    I'm no tekno, so forgive me wise ones.i've been using norton cleansweep 2002 for quite awhile and think it's a good prog but i have changed browers(mozilla). And by default cleansweep( i think) just scans IE's cache ,cookies ,history and cleans them.So now i have a prog that does all this stuff i don't use. i never use the smartsweep cleansweep fuction, as i only install progs recomended by the wise ones of zp(.AVG anti virus).But i liked the way that it actually did clean the stuff i had deleted then empty in the recycle bin off my hard drive.Could some of you please recomend a good cleaning prog that cleans that part of your hard drive (after you empty the recycle bin)All comments much appreciated.

    I use...

    ...mainly, I use HDCleaner, which I got from http://www.majorgeeks.com . Itīs highly recommended.
    Also, you can try G-Lockīs Temp Cleaner, from http://www.webattack.com .
    Webattack has a lot of that type of cleaning programs, so you might wanna investigate a bit.
    Anyway, HDCleaner cleans up cookies too.
    Stupid people shouldnīt breed.

    Thumbs up

    Emptying the recycle bin still leaves the files on your drive.Use http://www.tolvanen.com/eraser/ which lets you right click on the recycle bin and permanently erase the files in there.Also to clean slack space on your drive (you'd be amazed at all the space you'll gain.And it's free!
