I ran CCleaner for about 12 hours on secure delete (35 passes) and when it completed I got the following:

QUOTE

CLEANING COMPLETE - (45388.815 secs)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
6,158,341,453,260.7MB removed.
Secure file deletion enabled - Gutmann (35 passes)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Details of files deleted
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
IE Temporary Internet Files (5113 files) 14,637,517,471,968.8MB

I bet Google would love to barrow some of my spare hard drive space... lol Anyway, I found it funny that the IE Temp files that got removed were twice as large as the total amount removed.. (Neither of which are anywhere near accurate.)

Just wondering Phaaze if you have more than one instance of Internet Explorer installed.

Apparently this result can happen if you do.

Well, that is a bit of a tricky question. I only have IE8 installed, however, I do use IETester to debug xHTML/CSS as I develop sites. Although, I've never had this happen before and use Firefox primarily.
