Some reading this elsewhere are getting a mixed signal if the Slim version is soon to be pulled from the CCleaner family of software. This probably should be clarified as many run the free Slim version without having to jump through hoops to get the build. If you're asking if costs like web hosting and staff are motive or justification to pull CCleaner Slim out of the line-up, that's something you folks have to arrive at and make a statement.

Would it be a fair assement to say that Slim will follow in a week to ten days subsequent to the full version release ?

Hello, There are some avid users of CCleaner that find the delay in the release of the slim version a bit confusing. What is the official Pirirorm position on this, please. I was told in an earlier thread that extracting from the portable build would be sufficient to obtain the slim build, however, once a user does this under Windows, the uninstaller seems to get skewed in a way. What I mean to say of this is that the listed application under Add | Remove Programs does not jive with the actual installed version as extracting the executable from the portable build to a previosly installed slim build complicates the issue.

Thanks and noted, appreciated.

Cheers, Dennis !

I note that the latest release is missing slim on the builds page or am I missing something ?

I have my bookmarks

Keep us posted since many will not run the full build for fear of Google Toolbars and other third party annoyances.

Same here, Ken !

Yeah but Google Chrome is still in Beta-Mode... Not for the faint-of-heart. IE7 Rulez

Did you mean Bus-Metro-Walk, Ken

Agreed, Reg Hacks such as IE-SPYAD were never my cup-of-tea.

Agreed, no fussing - just wave goodbye to your previous install and get-on with the new. Cheers,

I became infested on this new box shortly after taking delivery. Without hesitation, I formatted and re-installed the O/S.Why fuss for days not knowing if something has written to your MBR or whatever. Back-up on a regular basis, good to have a secondary drive, as well.

This is an updated version of WinDefender 2008. See: http://www.f-secure.com/weblog/ http://www.f-secure.com/weblog/archives/00001508.html

Agreed, Andavari - whatever works best for you in your environment and surfing habits. Regards,

If you have other security measures installed on your box, the WOT IE plug-in isn't that good of an idea. I checked with several MS MVP's, they have test-driven the plug-in, some hate it, some uninstalled it. My .02 cents.

NOD32 does it all for me, I lost faith in Trend Micro when they bundled CWShredder with their Anti-Spyware app.
