I guess they are elements of some previously loaded software. Applications can include files which were created some time ago. I have a few entries with a date going back to before my pc was even a red blob on my credit card.

naw but seriously, the 7 passes isn't the scan, it's for when you over write.deepscan does just that scans for as much "recoverable" it can find no matter what
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.
