Advantages: it does exactly what it says, 30 day free trial

Disadvantages: nearly 20 GBP after 30 days

I was reccomended this product by a friend and was very sceptical as I had tried other so called system clean up utilities before and was unimpressed.

I downloaded the software and in a matter of minutes I was on my way to cleaning up over a thousand megabytes of space taken up by unwanted cookies.The program is very easy to install and use.

www.webroot .com brings you this delightful software for a free thirty day trial.

Simply, 'Window Washer' cleans up all your unwanted files from your computer. Unwanted cookies, your internet cache, document history and your recycle bin all gone, capoot. Of course you can do this on most Operating Systems anyway, so why choose this software?

'Window Washer' does so much more.


What is it then?

Window washer cleans and completely removes all traces of your internet and PC activity. Everything from your drop down address menu, downloaded program files, your registry and recent documents list can be completely wiped and untraceable.

A little information for you all.

When you delete something from your computer, it doesn't completely erase. Instead it remains on your hard drive. What 'Window Washer' does is something called bleaching. This means that it overwrites the code of the particular file so it cannot be traced. For added security, or to be just that little bit more sure you can specify how many times you want to bleach the items. I've heard from someone that the M.O.D uses this, how true that is I'm not sure. What I will say though is that I wouldn?t be surprised. If you don't want your boss or your other half knowing what you have been up to I suggest you get yourself over to the website and give it a try.


What else does it do?

It has a built in Custom Wash. This is where you can also clean up things like playlists from 'Windows Media Player' and 'Real Player'.

T
he 'Automatic Cleaning Function' means that you can set it to wash your computer automatically. You can set it to wash at specific times, such as before you shut your computer down. You can intergrate it into your own 'Windows Scheduler'.

'Cookie Keeper'. There may be some cookies that you don't want to delete. 'Window Washer' enables you to specify certain websites that you do not want cookies to be deleted from. In other words you can save the cookies you want and delete the rest.

So once you have downloaded it what does it look like?

Well, not that nice really. It's just a grey box with the appropriate buttons on the front. It's easy to use though and runs in the background so it doesn't harm my image.

Will it work on my O.S?

Yeah, probably. 'Window Washer' is compatible with Windows 95, 98, ME, NT4, 2000 and XP. It supports all major browsers including AOL, Internet Explorer and Netscape

****************************************

After your 30 day trial you can purchase it for only $29.95 which I think is around 20.00 GPB.

Cheers

Very useful review. Although, to be honest, when I saw the title I thought someone was gonna come and clean the windows of my house for free for 30 days :-(
