At the risk of seeming "LAZY," is this a safe assumption for CCLEANER? DEFRAGGLER? RECUVA?

Sorry to advise, latest 1.08 release (portable) still vexed by HARD hang. Must start with /DEBUG and have SMART options unselected.

As an experiment I would suggest that you run CCLEANER as a portable, i.e. not installed, but from a flash drive. I use it everyday that way and it appears to work. Then again I am running on XP 64..

Certainly.. Hope this is that which youMAPINFO1.txt seek.

Sorry, but it opens Windows Explorer (file explorer) neither Internet Explorer nor Fire Fox.

Sorry for delay. YES, I can confirm and do that speccy runs in debug mode with SMART options unchecked. I have tried the publish snapshot, but never receive a url, only a Publish Snapshot popup with three option buttons: 1. Open In Browser 2. Copy to Clipboard 3. Close Suggestions?

Happy to do so. There are some limitations though, the system HANGS and must be powered off and on again for further activity. Serendipitously I found that SPECCY ran in the debug mode if I did not check all of the options, specifically if I left the SMART checks out. So, attached you will find that log data which was captured prior to the HANG. Speccy_log1_07_2054-1-2011_13-28.txt

Thank you!

At least WIN7 is somewhat more robust than XP64!

Greetings! An obviously h/w configuration dependent hang, but the system MUST be powered off (UNPLUGGED!) to recover. Specifics: HP xw9300 with: Two AMD Opteron 250 processors 2GB RAM 2 WD SATA hds 1 DVD ROM 1 DVD R/W ! NVidia Quadro FX 540 Mobo Chipset NVidia NForce etc.. Most things enumerated/identified except the RAM and disc drives. If the Piriform s/w developers are interested in additional details, please let me know and I will be happy to provide as available.
