Alternatively ad-aware and spybot do a different type of cleaning, but really I don't think this is the correct forum for this, but don't really know what to suggest is the correct one.
For harebrain's type of cleaning though I would add a can of compressed air, it works wonders for cleaning the innards of dust covered cases.

[tt]Is it Duct or Duck? We don’t want you to be confused, so we will explain. The first name for Duct Tape was DUCK. During World War II the U.S. Military needed a waterproof tape to keep the moisture out of ammunition cases. So, they enlisted the Johnson and Johnson Permacel Division to manufacture the tape. Because it was waterproof, everyone referred to it as “duck” tape (like water off a duck’s back). Military personnel discovered that the tape was good for lots more than keeping out water. They used it for Jeep repair, fixing stuff on their guns, strapping equipment to their clothing... the list is endless.
After the War, the housing industry was booming and someone discovered that the tape was great for joining the heating and air conditioning duct work. So, the color was changed from army green to the silvery color we are familiar with today and people started to refer to it as “duct tape*.” Therefore, either name is appropriate.[/tt]
Gimme super-glue!

A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort.

Probably not the correct forum, but here's another vote for Window Washer. I use it in web development work to make *absolutely* sure the browser cache is cleared.
