    I am running win 95 OSR2, pent 2, 233 mhz, 64 ram

    under the widows tab some selections are not checked:

    autocomplete form history

    delete index.dat files

    advanced cache delete

    menu order cache

    window siz/location cache

    user assist history

    IIS log files

    should these be checked before I run cleaner or should I leave them unchecked and run the cleaner

    ALSO
    on the issues scan should I have the cleaner fix all the issues (there's alot of them) or can this screw something up?
    for instance AT one point I TRIED NETSCAPE 6 but I didn't like how aol screwed it up. so I went back to NETSCAPE 4.6. if I fix issues that are listed for netscape 6 will that cause a browser or OS conflict?

    Agreed. Netscape 4.x is not going to be able to correctly render a fair portion of the modern web. CSS-based sites especially, but also some JavaScript and (IMX) some PHP and ASP generated sites (usually those that hook into databases). I'm also not sure how well Netscape 4.x handles encryption, cookies, and other security factors, so you might want to avoid online shopping with Netscape 4.x.

    Although I'd argue you should use Mozilla 1.7 since that's the most current stable build (although it's still currently in final development... that's what RC2 means). It's still likely a better choice than Moz 1.6, which was a feature refinement build.

    Thanks Mastertech, I'M new at all this spyware and tweeking stuff, but better late than never. I use internet explorer also I just like the features on netscape 4.6 and guess I have become too comfortable with it.

    I have recently been having a problem with defrag. it gets stuck at between 55 and 80% . Any ideas on why it wont complete a defrag 100%?

    thanks again for your help. GB.

    For what it's worth there is a new version of CrapCleaner.(v1.10). I've just downloaded it today, but haven't installed it, as yet
