All sorts of data is stored on your PC whenever you surf the internet, ranging from cached files (copies of images and pages visited) to cookies (personal data & browsing history). These can take up a lot of disk space in a short amount of time.

All these files can be deleted directly within the browsers themselves, but can involve a lot of mouse-clicks. Complete Cleanup lets you delete them all with one click.

Upon launching Complete Cleanup you are greeted with a summary of all superfluous files and the amount of disk space they hog. You can then delete specific categories of files, such as History, Cookies, Cache and Temp folder.

Along with the above files, other data can be deleted including ActiveX/Java Applets, Recycle Bin and Location URLs. In the case of cookies, it is possible to specify cookies to keep (i.e. those from trusted sites) for convenience.

A single button can be clicked to delete everything in one go - this can be adapted to clean only those areas you wish.

Complete Cleanup works with Internet Explorer and Netscape Navigator.

Purchase price: $29.95
