Quick heads up for those that haven't seen it -

Since its initial release in 2004, CCleaner has been the market-leading cleaning tool for Windows PCs. We are proud to announce the release of CCleaner v3.0!

- A new Drive Wiper tool screen under the Tools section, which allows users to securely erase the contents or free space on a specified drive.
- Improved support for Internet Explorer 9 and the Google Chrome browsers.
- We have also added improved cleaning support for HTML5 database storage, allowing CCleaner to effectively manage the next generation of web applications.
- Additional cleaning support for Microsoft Silverlight Isolated Storage.
- We've added three new environment variables (%SystemDirectory%, %SystemDirectory32%, and %SystemDirectory64%).
- New application icon.
- New Intelligent cookie keeping feature.

Thanks for the heads up. I'll download it later, when I'm on my computer. I like it that there's a x64 version.
 
Drive Wiper sounds like a nice feature, although tbh they (MS) should make this a standard Windows feature. It can go in Windows8.
 
Thanks for the heads up, given it a run on my laptop. Used the drive wiper, don't have a way to test to see whether data is actually recoverable.
 
Couple of probs.

First, I installed this over the old install as per their usual recommendation.

However now it cannot detect the software I have installed e.g. firefox, there's no option to wipe it.

Secondly, when I run the new drive wipe feature on my flash drive it crashes.
