  1. Thanks, I wrote it so everyone could understand it. I do agree it has a lot of information, but is lacking... I originally wrote the guide to just to show how people how to us CCleaner, but people requested that more info be added, so I have been building it up ever since.

     

    There is more info I can add, I have plans of doing it. I have been sick lately and haven't done much besides work, lay on the couch, and watch tv. The only thing I can see is, it seems to me it's falling away from being a Beginner's Guide, to the Complete Guide. :)

     

    Hopefully, I will have it all complete this week, or maybe this weekend.

  2. I'm not 100% sure if this feature will ever be in CCleaner. It has never been brought up or discussed.

     

    CCleaner is a freeware system optimization and privacy tool. It removes unused files from your system - allowing Windows to run faster and freeing up valuable hard disk space. It also cleans traces of your online activities such as your Internet history. But the best part is that it's fast (normally taking less that a second to run) and contains NO Spyware or Adware! :)

     

    Secure Deletion is probably as far as it will ever go. Wiping free space takes time and CCleaner is all about speed. If you wipe your free space all the time, then I have this to say. Stop doing illegal stuff and being paranoid of getting caught. Other than that there is no reason to run it all the time, all it does is put wear, and tear on your HD.

     

    Use Eraser, that's the only program I will ever use. I usually wipe free space every 3 months or so, why? Just do it, there's no other reason than that.

  3. Fact or Fiction, I don't know. I also heard it sends data to Microsoft each time you connect to the internet.

     

    You should really search sites and read about its previous fiasco, there's even an old thread on these forums about it.

     

    At first (speaking about last year) I didn't think it was a big deal until:

    * It could deem valid installations of XP as being illegal.

    * Caused some serious problems as reported by end-users, and companies - hence the reason Microsoft removed it completely and only just re-released it.

    ...if you need more reasons to be leary of it just search for it using Google or whatever.

     

    Also it is in no way a critical update in any sense, and shouldn't be said to be one by Microsoft. It's only an add-on that shouldn't even show up unless someone visits the Microsoft Update, or Windows Updates websites.

  4. GTK+ are system drivers, once installed... That's it. TheGIMP requires it to run.

     

    Yes, in that order.

     

    I like GIMPshop because it's made to look like Adobe Photoshop (GUI wise). It's really nice and I think you will like it.

  5. I bought a 360 a few months after it's release and have had the Intercool on it since day one. Not one 1 problem with anything, even gaming stores recommend buying one, it puts out a lot of heat. That will kill the Xbox 360 faster. I mean come on, how much power does it take to power 3 little fans. :lol:

  6. During it's first release of the Xbox 360, there were a few problems. It was rare, but there were a few firmware problems. The big problem was overheating (still is), this is an easy fix though. Just buy a Intercooler, it's a must buy if you are going to have a 360.

  7. At first glance, I didn't think it would work out. It takes about an hour or so to really get use to it, but I really like it. You get a lot control over the game with it and you feel like you are a part of the game. I know critics and reviewers say the graphics aren't next gen, but they are fine with me. Graphics don't make the game, it's the actually game play. I have been a Zelda fan since it's release on Nintendo, I have played Link to the Past so many times, I can't tell you. Zelda TP is by far the best Zelda I have ever played. The graphics are very nice, the storyline is very unique, and original.

     

    The remote does have it's corky moments, sometimes when you have to aim really high up, the pointer will go off screen, and you get a message. I just can't wait for Metroid, it looks awesome, and playing with the remote will be totally different and a new Metroid experience.

    I am very happy with the Xbox 360, the graphics will blow your mind, and some the games for it are the best I have ever played. I know people are bashing back and forth about the PS3 vs. Xbox 360. I have played the PS3 and I will say this:

     

    Console and graphics wise, I would go with the Xbox 360. The graphics you can't get much better this day of age, it's got several rock-solid game titles, and more coming this year. A lot of the game developers are making exclusive Xbox 360 titles or making them for both systems now (PS3 & Xbox 360).

     

    The only thing the PS3 has going for it is, it has superior real-time rendering (best i have ever seen), and Blu-ray. As far as game title wise, the PS3 sucks bad in that department. Resistance is the only game it has going for it (original and exclusive), the rest are just old PS2 games that have been made for the PS3.

     

    People nowadays want original games or story driven games (Halo, Gears of War, and so on). Not games that just continue on and on, and on. Is Metal Gear Solid ever going to end, or how about Mortal Kombat, or Vitual Fighter? :)
