    I don't know if I'd trust a company that is dumb enough to name a product that could so easily be confused with Evidence Eliminator. Even if they came along first, with all of the bad publicity for EE, I don't know if I'd trust a company that didn't CHANGE the name of their product because of the possibility of confusion. In my opinion, that's dumb, dumb, dumb.

    Eraser 5.7. Select the files to delete and let it start. Rest assured, it will be difficult to next impossible to recover them.

    Two of the best are Ace Utilities(this can clean your PC in all aspects,and cover IE and Mozilla) and Tune Up Utilities is good too.

    I use CleanCache and CleanMOCache from ButtUglySoftware. CleanCache takes care of wiping out any IE leftovers on exit of IE. CleanMOCache takes care of Firefox (on exit) and Windows system stuff (at Windows startup). I've been using both for quite some time now and very happy with them.

    I also use jv16 PowerTools (last free version) for cleaning the registry.

    i like system mechanic because its an all-in-one utility suite and it has a good registry cleaner however for just cleaning junk files, then window washer is better.

    I currently use two programs:

    1. ccleaner: Which i like because it is free. BUT it doesn't "wipe" or overwrite files. It just deletes them to make room.

    2. SuperCleaner it seems to work well it always wipeing. Just don't let it delete all of you 0-byte files.

    You got that right and it runs even during each reboot, if you change the approriate setting.

    :D (1) CCCleaner. (2) SmartBuster. (3) RegSeeker.

    That's all one needs in my opinion, all of these are "free" ware and sites such as Geek or Two cows etc. should have the applicable links.

    Thanks
