    CCleaner Safe?

    CCleaner uses internally-stored settings (.INI) files to determine which Windows settings and installed applications to clean, and how to clean them. You can modify these .INI files by creating replacement external ones and placing them in CCleaner's installation folder.

    Check here for more info:

    CCleaner.com - CCleaner .INI files

    That's what i did to cleanup some more things.
