Guys,

I've just downloaded CCleaner on my laptop and everytime I reboot the machine it removes all of my internet settings i.e. clears recently viewed sites, removes usernames etc.............. whereabouts in settings can I change this ?

Cheers

Paul

 

open ccleaner-options-settings-uncheck the box to run when computer starts

 

good programme, just make sure you know how to use it first eh

 

Cheers Guys

It still seems to be removing passwords etc ?

Also when I run it prompts me that this and that have changed and either to allow or deny the change............ what do I do ? does it not have an auto option

 

also uncheck the box for cleaning auto complete form history

 

Cheers

 

Thats because it removes cookies in its cleaning process(as default) but you can change almost all the settings so it deletes and doesnt delete exactly what you tell it to

 

Go to start menu, open the command promt (or hit RUN, type CMD), type C:\FORMAT

 

Just in case - DON'T actually do that

 

if you dont Know what your doing with the program it will fuck up your PC

 

Really ? in what way ?

 

cookies delete if no passwords saved your fucked..via any site that use them

the tools option is a delete program uninstall

the tools start up can delete your start up programs its like MSCONFIG

if you dont know what to click on i advise not to use it

when he says fuck it up he means if your a novice, if you know what your doing theres no way ccleaner can do any harm

 

Ok............... it seems as though I've bitten off more than I can chew

I don't like to think of myself as a ''complete'' novice but I'm not exactly a nasa programmer either

Just uninstalled it from my system............... now............ I also downloaded spybot as I was told this was useful..............

Anything I should know about this ?....................... shall I just hit uninstall now what with my ''novice'' status ?

 

for a home pc you need..the basics

adaware http://www.download.com/Ad-Aware-200....html?tag=list

and spybot http://www.download.com/Spybot-Searc....html?tag=list

but be sure before you delete anything..took me 2 hours to make my g/f know how to clean up her pc ..and she still fucks it up

read all the google reports and you will be A OK

its better to learn,than to pay somebody to do it

just take your time

 

Cheers m8.................. have had Adaware installed but was lead to believe it didn't autorun/ update ?


Have spybot............... but again........... dosen't make much sense as to what it wants to do will keep researching

 

Cossiep

with spybot and adaware you have to update the programs yourself its not auto software

 

why dont people actually try using HELP files that are bundled with nearly all software. They are there to HELP.

No, thats too much effort.
