CCleaner, a freeware filecleaner started off as pretty basic utility but has continued to improve to the point where it is now very close to the best in its class regardless of price.

It's very effective in freeing up disk space by removing unused and temporary files, cookies, Recycle bin entries, Windows hot-fix files, sold prefetch data, history and cache files in many applications such as Internet Explorer and Firefox and much more. Additionally it will check the Windows Registry for invalid entries.

Before you install it you should know the minuses: first the installation settings are fairly complicated so do check them carefully. Second the product installation, by default, includes the installation of the Yahoo Toolbar so if you don't want it, make sure you uncheck that option. And finlly I would not install the Registry cleaner.However if simply freeing up disk space is your objective the CCleaner is hard to beat.

A good companion to CCleaner is Empty Temp Folders which is used purely to clean up temporary files. It's not as complete a product as CCleaner and it's been a while since it was last updated, but it always manages to clean more temporary file than CCleaner. Using both together is an option.
