DO NOT USE THIS WINDOWS XP CLEANUP! 4.0 PROGRAM!
It's basically a delete-all-files command with NO OPTIONS to stop it!

No matter what you set in the CleanUp! OPTIONS box, it will delete all your
files on your system in any temporary folder (even those NOT named C:
\TEMP)!

I know. I lost many many many files and many hours trying to recover them
from this asinine virus called CleanUp! written by Steven R. Gould (a known
virus hacker) at http://www.stevengould.org

I repeat:
 EVEN IF YOU UNCHECK ALL DELETE OPTIONS this program will STILL DELETE
every single one of your files in any folder Steven Gould considers
temporary (including C:\Program Files)!

If you don't believe me, just run the program and watch all your files
disappear!

You have been warned!
