Hi, I have Ccleaner 2.14.763, when I click for updates I get a prompt to download new version 2.17.853. The version I have seems to be working OK, so before I update I have some questions. Is it necessary to download this new version? What is different or better in this new one, and has anybody have had any problems with it?
I have Windos XP/SP3.
Thanks, edith

There have been some "problems" with it but there are "problems" with each version of this (or any) software. and usually as you are as aware as I, they have to do with the program not being used correctly. However, if you ask me (which in a way you did) the change is seemless. I checked the Embedded INI (winmerge compare)and there were only the changes listed above in what is cleaned and how it is cleaned.
ADVICE FOR USING CCleaner'S REGISTRY INTEGRITY SECTION
DON'T JUST CLEAN EVERYTHING THAT'S CHECKED OFF.
Do your Registry Cleaning in small bits (at the very least Check-mark by Check-mark)
ALWAYS BACKUP THE ENTRY, YOU NEVER KNOW WHAT YOU'LL BREAK IF YOU DON'T.
