Every time I start my computer a box with an error code dc7.exe displays it started with dc1.exe a few days ago, and its on 7 is this anything to do with ccleaner? when I click it off everything works ok.

I don't think it has anything to do with CCleaner. However you may want to post a screenshot of the problem if it's displaying anything.

Files that are randomly renaming them self, e.g.; dc1.exe, dc2.exe, ...dc7.exe, etc., sound suspicious to me. You can upload the file to have it scanned by multiple virus scanners at http://virusscan.jotti.org/.
