Rich, Rich, never trust any program that says it will delete something from
your computer.
I have been using Clean Sweep in my enterprise for two years and through 2
versions. I review everything that it wants to do, and I have last say if
it will. There are check boxes that can be unchecked and the information
for that box will remain in the computer. I have never in two years on 25
computer had a problem with Clean Sweep.
