gazstone Posted March 23, 2013 Share Posted March 23, 2013 Hi. I am currently developing a system optimization and cleaning tool for Vista/Windows 7 (Currently untested on Windows 8). So far I have included support for IE, Chrome and Firefox. Please visit my site and test it out: http://gazstone.com/opticlean.htm Let me know any feature requests or bugs/feedback. Thanks, Gareth night_stalker_z 1 Share Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/1143376-opticlean-100/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jub Posted March 23, 2013 Share Posted March 23, 2013 It would be nice if you could say, for example, why this is better than CCleaner? Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/1143376-opticlean-100/#findComment-595594406 Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJGM Posted March 24, 2013 Share Posted March 24, 2013 Wasn't there a very similar program branded as "Mozilla Cleaner" even though it obviously wasn't made by Mozilla?

articuno1au Posted March 24, 2013 Share Posted March 24, 2013 As best I can tell he is just nuking the locations that the browsers hold their cookies/info etc. It's written in .net to boot >.> @ gazstone - You can prompt the app to always request elevated permissions on startup. Should fix the issue with users having to right click -> Run as Admin stuff :) Wasn't there a very similar program branded as "Mozilla Cleaner" even though it obviously wasn't made by Mozilla?

gazstone Posted March 24, 2013 Author Share Posted March 24, 2013 It is a rebranding of Mozilla Cleaner which I have conducted in response to the stir I seem to have caused by using the Mozilla name. The original incarnation (7 years ago), catered for Firefox, Thunderbird and Mozilla suite hence the name. I initially wrote the program for my own personal use, however, I though why not put it out there for anyone else to use. CCleaner is a good software, currently I cannot provide a reason as to why OptiClean is better. Give me a few years though and who knows.
