What's wrong with CCleaner on Vista? The current version of CCleaner is
Vista compatible and even the 'older' versiosn worked fine for me. 'Dubious'
registry cleaners i have to agree with your comments but, not many people
use that aspect of CCleaner and even if they do it is well documented what
files are being removed - you also have a backup options so, if things go
wrong, they can be corrected.
If you are planning on keeping utility programs designed for XP well away
from Vista, then you may as well blanket cover the whole software arena and
say 'keep every program designed for XP away from Vista' In the end a
program either works in Vista or doesn't. As it stands at the moment i would
probably say that hundreds of applications designed for XP are 'not' Vista
compatible and probably won't be for many months to come.
