The objective of good PC Maintenance is to keep the PC operating efficiently with minimal disruption. A part of that process is to keep the PC as free as possible of extraneous data. One way to do that is to run the disk cleanup utility that is a part of the Windows operating system. It removes “unnecessary” files from the PC and gives you for available disk space.

The disk cleanup program does not require administrative privileges and, therefore, can be run by any user. It is found under Start/Programs/Accessories/System Tools. You can run it by double-clicking its icon. You can also run it from a command line or automate the process. For more information, check this Microsoft web page: “How to Automate the Disk Cleanup Tool in Windows XP” at http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;315246

Select what you wish to be processed by the disk cleanup from the following:
* Downloaded Program Files
* Temporary Internet
* Recycle Bin
* Temporary Remote Desktop Files
* Setup Log Files
* Offline Files
* Compress Old Files
(This compresses rather than deletes files. If you need them again, there will be a slight delay as they are decompressed. If you select this option, you will also have an option of the number of days the system will wait before it will compress an idle file.)

Illegal P2P sites always claim that they will give you access to tv shows and games etc, but if you go to download any, you could easily infect your computer with spyware and viruses, and you will probably find that the download isn’t what you wanted anyway. Hackers use this kind of site to give them access to thousands of people’s computers. It is extremely dangerous to play their game.

They will never deliver what is promised, and may cause untold harm.

They are very poor sites, and the people who run them are not ethical, so once again they are to be avoided.
