Review by Michael E. Callahan aka Dr. File Finder

Ashampoo WinOptimizer Platinum Suite 2, by ashampoo GmbH & Co. KG is a collection of tools that help to keep your computer clean and running very smoothly. If you don't know it by now, I'm here to tell you that your computer collects junk. Useless stuff in the Windows Registry, duplicate copies of the same DLL all over your machine, lot of those so-called "temporary" files, and lots more. Well, with WinOptimizer Suite, you can really clean up! To start with, it has an "Internet Cleaner" that helps you to remove all of those temporary files. Keep in mind that the temporary files are only temporary if you remove them. The Internet Cleaner lets you decide exactly what you want to get rid of. And, when it comes to the infamous "cookies" it also lets you decide which ones you'd like to keep. That's a very slick option to have. WinOptimizer Suite doesn't stop with just the junk you pick up on the Internet. Its "Registry Cleaner" will go through and eliminate all of the unwanted rubbish that gets stranded in your Registry when you uninstall programs. Getting rid of the junk helps your computer to run faster and boot quicker. And if all this weren't enough, it also has a "DLL Cleaner" that will go through and find duplicate DLL files on your machine. The programs "Drive Cleaner" will go around your hard disk and help to get rid of duplicate files of other types. On top of that the program has a "Startup Tuner" that lets you keep track of what program are loading when Windows starts. And, to complete the package there's a "File Wiper" that will totally delete a file so that it's unrecoverable and an "Internet Tuner" that optimizes your Internet connection. Excellent!WinOptimizer Suite, by ashampoo GmbH & Co. KG, is a complete package for optimizing both your computer and your connection to the Internet. It removes duplicate files, duplicate DLLs, cleans the Windows Registry, and removes all kind of temporary and useless files. When needed it can wipe files and folders so they can't be recovered, while also letting you monitor programs that load when Windows starts. So, if you're looking for a package that will keep your computer not only clean, but running smoothly, take a good look at WinOptimizer Suite. Loaded with configurable options. I recommend it.
