Just found another bad bug that qualifies this as a version to avoid. It has new features, one of which is similar to the brightness editor. Any adjustments I make simply revert and do not save.

i made myself portable versions of SPlayer, MPlayer WW, and PowerDVD because i dislike VLC's interface and video quality; it feels and looks unpolished.

Not a big fan of VLC, but sometimes you need a dependable portable player. This version (v2.0.1) runs great. I ran music and videos on XP, 7, and 8RP. No problems. |

I love this application! Not only does it allow me to eliminate nearly all dependency on Adobe reader (A major resource hog) but it also doubles as an e-reader (I found that out by accident) and it even has a plug-in for Firefox! Also, since it doesn't run JavaScript embedded in the PDF, a major security hole is filled! I highly recommend this fast little PDF reader for anyone who has had it with Adobe!

CCleaner is a system optimization and privacy tool. It removes unused, temporary, and log files from your system, as well as cleaning traces of your online activities such as Internet history and flash cookies. Contains a separate registry cleaner and can optionally use wipe features for both deleted files and drive free space.
See the official documentation for information on generating a list of covered programs search for "Export". An unofficial set of community developed cleaning rules can be found here however it should be noted that many of these rules are alpha and the developers will not provide support for these rules, a thread in the users forum is dedicated to supporting the add-on rules.
A 64-bit version is available (within the folder).

Can't live without this app. I don't know how many problems I've fixed, with others' computers as well as my own, just by running CCleaner once.

WinApp2.com has just push the 1000 programs mark for cleaning additional applications that CCleaner doesn't.
