CCleaner will be fine...I use it...or go with RegCleaner.
Eg ;)
@echo off
rem Temp File cleanup script
if (%os%) == (Windows_NT) goto NTXP
goto 9x
:NTXP
setlocal
echo.

Save this as a Batch file, someone posted this some time ago here and I loved it. Simple and affective in most ways.
Edit: Sorry didnt look at the software, this code isnt for cleaning up spyware, but it does a pretty good job cleaning up unwanted stuff on your computer.
There are a lot of software that cleans up your computer, CCleaner is a goodone , and I don't think buying one is a verry good idea.
You can go to http://www.ccleaner.com/ to make sure you get the latest version. When running, just make sure you understand what it is cleaning BEFORE you say OK. :)
I highly recommend CCleaner. I'd used Windows Washer for years (a fee-based product from Webroot) and CCleaner is every bit the product WW is and then some.
I like those too... simple fast and can much......
