    For a good general purpose and no install needed I like Ulta WinCleaner. Its less than 1mg and you can find it on k-lite.
    Just make a folder and move the .exe into it because it has an auto update button in the upper right hand corner and it will download updates into that folder.

    If you are running XP and want to clean up 300-700MG, there is a app. called dustbuster XP. It will clean up that much space on its first use and then usually less than 1MG after that. What it removes noone knows....lol

    System Mechanic also has a good clean up proggy as well.

    Dont forget about windows disk clean-up utility also

    Hope this Helps,
    Steve

    Yes, Sequoia View is a very useful little program. And that Windows joke was funny.

    Code:
    Microsoft Windows 2000 [Version 5.00.2195]
    (C) Copyright 1985-2000 Microsoft Corp.
    
    C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator>del /?
    Deletes one or more files.
    
    DEL [/P] [/F] [/S] [/Q] [/A[[:]attributes]] names
    ERASE [/P] [/F] [/S] [/Q] [/A[[:]attributes]] names
    
     names     Specifies a list of one or more files or directories.
            Wildcards may be used to delete multiple files. If a
            directory is specified, all files within the directory
            will be deleted.
    
     /P      Prompts for confirmation before deleting each file.
     /F      Force deleting of read-only files.
     /S      Delete specified files from all subdirectories.
     /Q      Quiet mode, do not ask if ok to delete on global wildcard
     /A      Selects files to delete based on attributes
     attributes  R Read-only files      S System files
            H Hidden files        A Files ready for archiving
            - Prefix meaning not
    
    If Command Extensions are enabled DEL and ERASE change as follows:
    
    The display semantics of the /S switch are reversed in that it shows
    you only the files that are deleted, not the ones it could not find.

    hey skelley, you really like that ultra wincleaner?
    (i think i threw mine away........ )
    I am just a worthless liar. I am just an imbecile.
    I will only complicate you. Trust in me and fall as well.
    I will find a center in you. I will chew it up and leave.
    I will work to elevate you just enough to bring you down.
