IECleaner1.50

IECleaner is a small-sized and straightforward application that gives you the possibility to clear privacy-related information in Internet Explorer with one click.This comes in handy if you share the computer with other PC users (willingly or not), since it helps you clean your tracks when navigating the web using the default web browser provided by Microsoft.

Java-based tool with a simple GUI

The setup operation is quick and shouldn't give you any trouble. The only notable aspect about it is that it requires you to have Java. As far as the interface is concerned, IECleaner adopts a small single window that shows all options available.

Clear privacy data in Internet Explorer

Therefore, you can select the types of privacy-related objects to clean in Internet Explorer, such as temporary IE files, cookies, history, form data, and passwords. It's possible to make a combination out of any of these groups, as well as to tick an option for deleting all items.During the deletion tasks, the app displays a small progress window, but it doesn't reveal any kind of statistics, such as the number of files from each category, the full path of each file, or anything else. On top of that, it doesn't implement options for backing up information, nor for previewing the objects to eliminate. An uninstaller is included in the program files, along with an .ini file that lists all files and registry entries created by the tool.

Evaluation and conclusion

As we expected, it deleted data swiftly in our tests, without causing Windows to hang, crash or prompt error messages. It left a small footprint on the system's performance, running on a low quantity of CPU and memory.However, IECleaner doesn't leave room for customization, due to the fact that it contains a light set of features. Nevertheless, you can test it for yourself, since it's free.
