Paging file cleaner

The Paging file cleaner allows you to remove any traces of PC or Internet activity
permanently.

A paging file is a file on a hard disk (e.g. C:\win386.swp in Windows 98/Me or
C:\pagefile.sys in Windows NT/2000/XP/2003 Server) used by Windows as
additional memory when that is required in order to run applications.
