"Avast just announced that the company has acquired the software company Piriform, best known for the software program CCleaner for Windows.

Piriform's flagship product is CCleaner, a temporary file cleaner and traces remover for Windows. The company has created other respectable programs such as Speccy, a hardware inventory software, Defraggler, a file defragmentation program, and Recuva, a file recovery application." - via Ghacks

    System Ninja [singularlabs.com] is worth a try if you want to avoid CCleaner now. It's a bit slow - possibly to help you stretch the wallet muscles and buy a licence - but it has worked for me. It's the same company that produce CCEnhancer, an addon that expands the scope of CCleaner.
