Program: System Icon Cleaner
Version: 2.0
Status:  Freeware
Charge:  $0.00


Description:
~~~~~~~~~~~~

System Icon Cleaner is a simple, easy to use application that
is designed to remove redundant icons from the System's Image
List or SIL.


Overview:
~~~~~~~~~

As you browse your system, icons are collected and added to the
SIL. All icons are kept in this list to increase performance, yet
there are a good number of things that will produce duplicate
entries. System Icon Cleaner will present you with the complete
list of icons currently in the list so that you can see just how
many duplicate icons are there, or how many icons you thought you
removed from your system but are still cached by the system.

Once you clean you system of redundant icons, System Icon Cleaner
will present you with the new SIL so you can see just how many
icons you need to boot your system. As you browse, icons will again
be added to the list once again. These include associate icons and
of course icons that you have on your system.

A good example is suppose you download a collection of 1000 icons.
The SIL will cache these 1000 icons to increase preformance, but
suppose you didn't like any of them and deleted them, or just
forgot they were there and will probably never use any of them.
Well, they will still be cached by the system. 1000 icons cached
by the system will take up just over 1 MB of memory, not to mention
a chunk of disk space.

Removing icons from the SIL does not remove them from your system,
so you never have to worry about losing any of your favorite icons.
It's just one of those small performance issues that can make your
computer run faster and more efficient.
