So I now have CCleaner, is this a safe/reliable tool to use? Or have people had problems with it in the past?

CCleaner is a legitimate product from the very trustworthy Piriform company. The same company that makes Speccy and Recuva. So yes it's safe to use.
Thread considered closed.

PS : Just don't use the Registry Cleaner feature and you'll be fine.

It finds millions of problems so I though it's a good feature.

I don't even have to explain it, millions of reliable sources will for you :

If you want, there's even an article from a Microsoft employee.

I have had absolutely nothing but problems since cleaning my computer's registry.
I also advise that no-one uses this feature.

It's a product from Piriform... yes trustworthy. Only run it from time to time. Free version will keep you happy. : )

It seems absolutely legitimate according to my observations.

I would not hesitate if I were you.

The OP isn't an upgraded member, therefore, he can't close his threads. He have to be L33t in order to do that.
