Sounds like junkware to me. My question would be why install some third party app to delete god knows what that actually may be needed. I used to use the Norton utility that kept track of what an application changed when you intstalled it, that way it could change them back later. But, I never used it. IF your using a pre 2000 OS it may be handy but, I always re-imaged my old machines periodically to keep them running good. Look here if you must
