I don't believe CCleaner supports double byte character operating systems yet.
No it doesn't yet. So it should ask if you would like to skip instead of just stopping in the middle of cleaning. Or by default not check them type of characters. As it is now you don't know what is wrong unless you know it doesn't support double byte characters. In older version it would just continue and give message at end it was not able to fix them entries.

CCleaner 2.x does support double byte. It is not Unicode aware because it needs to run on Win9x and MSLU would have to be part of the installer.
Anyway, can you please post more details of the machine and OS version you are using so people at Piriform can know what is really going on?

I can't reproduce your error.
I have installed Asian language support on my XP machine and created an entry in the registry using the path you mentioned but my CCleaner v2.00.495 works ok and it doesn't crash. Naturally, the characters are all wrong as CCleaner is not Unicode aware...but at least mine doesn't crash or freeze up...
