NOTE: Recent press about CCleaner indicates it may represent a privacy concern.
CCleaner is a feature-rich system optimization and privacy tool. The program cleans unused, temporary and log files from your system, as well as traces of online activities such as Internet history and flash cookies. The program contains startup controls for Windows, major internet browsers and context menu entries. Includes a separate registry cleaner, duplicate search, system restore tool and can wipe both deleted files and drive free space for security.
A 64-bit version is available (within the folder). Monitoring functions are only available in the pro version.
Additional cleaner rules can be using an unofficial set of community-developed set. 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.
Alternatively, ccPortable is also available.

v1.3.8 - the BIG new feature here is that you can now export/backup your data. |
MJ Registry Watcher is a system tray program that monitors and alerts you to changes to any registry keys files or folders. The default set of keys and files should ensure that nothing gets run at startup without your knowledge and important boot up files don't get changed behind your back, but you can configure it to suit your own needs. The program can also keep a full history of alerts in a log file.

This software protects and monitors changes to your registry and system files on Windows. It has saved me lots of time and effort with foistware and other unwanted system changes made by certain programs. It offers a registry backup facility which backs up your entire registry every 28 days and retains the last 15 copies. This has also saved me when I rather over-zealously tried to remove GotoMyPC from my computer. In terms of resource usage and intrusiveness, you will barely notice it's there, especially once you have exempted certain alerts from coming up after your initial deployment. Excellent and well recommended. |

Cattleya: have you tried changing the admin port (away from 9999)? Privoxy might be redirecting it for some reason. |

Another fine app from Nir Sofer, been using many apps for many years from Nirsoft please keep em coming. Thanks for all the hard work giving us these apps to help us run our computers and overall make our lives easier..... at least makes my life easier. Thanks. |
NetworkConnectLog repeatedly scans your local area network using ARP and Netbios protocols, adding a new log line every time a new computer or device connects to or disconnects from your network. This helps keep track of both machines that should be on your network (servers) and those that should not (unauthorized users).
Log files are easily exported to a variety of formats including basic spreadsheets or HTML/XML file.
