|Is using the utility, CCleaner, a good (and safe) idea?

IMHO yes for deleting temp type files, i.e., Temporary Internet Files etc.

But unless you are a very experienced computer user do not use the registry cleaner portion of the program. If you look back through posts in this group as well as windowsxp.general and windowsxp.help_and_support about registry cleaners, ther're evel. Overall they create more problems than they correct.
