I would never be without SpywareBlaster. It operates in an entirely different way to any other tool and doesn't interfere with any of them (NB CCleaner is NOT an anti-malware tool). I have paid versions of MalwareBytes and SAS. MB runs in real time, SAS doesn't. I never get anything worse than an occasional tracking cookie.

By the same token, I would never give CCleaner its head, and this thread highlights why. Blindly ticking all boxes in CCleaner without understanding what each one does can lead to complications.
