Why do you need Window Washer? |
Many people do not realize that everything you do on your computer can be traced -- documents you've used, pictures you've viewed, web sites you've visited, and more. Not only is this an invasion of privacy, but these unnecessary files eat up valuable hard drive space.
You can take back your privacy and improve your system's performance by regularly cleaning your cache, cookies, history, recent documents list, and more with Webroot Window Washer.
The original and most advanced system cleaning tool available, new Window Washer 5.0 introduces a wealth of innovative enhancements including:
File Shredding: With a file shredder built in to the Windows right-click menu, secure removal of a document is only a mouse click away.
Customized User Interface: Select the interface that best matches your comfort and experience level. The beginner screen is intuitive and immediately allows for a safe wash experience. The advanced screen gives you additional options such as keeping cookies from a specific domain or skipping plug-ins during a wash.
Bleach for extra security: Completely overwrite files with random characters making them unrecoverable by undelete or unerase utilities - a security feature which exceeds the standards of the Department of Defense.
File Protection: Built-in safety features prevent you from accidentally removing important files.
Cookie keeper: Save valuable cookies to maintain your preferred Internet settings and log-ins.
Integrated, free plug-ins: Automatically discover and install free plug-ins for your favorite programs such as KaZaa, Real Player, Adobe Acrobat and more.
