About 48 according to FileHippo.

What did it look like?

Can you get a screen shot?

What does the icon look like to start it?

Hi me20000,
Sounds like you are describing the RegCure icon itself.
Some users set up their icons themselves.
Just make sure that she gets the "real" CCleaner from Piriform and nowhere else.
That program may be set up to clean your friends accounts and credit cards as well.

Good luck,
:) davey

ReCure does not have a very good reputation:

http://www.siteadvis...tes/regcure.com <== read the complaints

Plus the RegCure site is blocked by hpHosts and it takes a lot to convince Steven Burn to add a site to his HOSTS file.
