I'm not sure where you got that from Rip. I have always recommended CCleaner and think it's a must have program. It's even on the free program list. :huh:

Two questions for you -
Which particular build of CC Cleaner would you recommend?
[ I generally point people towards the Slim Version.]

Is it considered a good idea to recommend CC Cleaner to someone on the forum who is not a confident Vista / computer user?

TIA

I use Advanced System Care. It's pretty good. Something like tune up utilities. I've used both and have to say that I personally prefer Advanced System Care free rather than Tune Up Utilities

I always liked the Standard version of CCleaner, but whichever one suites your needs would be best. :)

CCleaner standard comes with the yahoo toolbar. Last time I checked it can't be deselected during installation so get the slim build.
