Useful download for FREE software to speed up slow computers

Post by tanks_for_the_memory »

I don't own any shares in this company, but thought I would pass on a useful tip which a friend gave to me.

If, like me, you are using an old PC (one of mine runs Windows XP) there is a free piece of software called C-Cleaner which simply sweeps all of the old downloads and cookies out of your computer and speeds it up considerably.

Go to

http://www.piriform.com/ccleaner/download

and download from the free options on the left - then the top right of the next page.

You simply run this thing from time to time and watch your computer speed up - it really works!

Yeah I've used this for last few years and really like always amazes me it finds of nearly of 1gb of Internet files every couple of weeks!

Also don't forget to check out the start up blocker to stop program's starting in background when you turn on computer. Doesn't stop the program working if you need it later but speeds up start up a little.
