Bleachbit

See:- http://bleachbit.sourceforge.net/

BleachBit Features:-

* Free disk space
* Reduce the size of backups and the time to create them by removing unnecessary files
* Maintain privacy
* Improve system performance (by vacuuming the Firefox database, for example)
* Clear the memory and swap on Linux
* Delete broken shortcuts on Linux
* Clean APT for Debian, Ubuntu, Kubuntu, Xubuntu, and Linux Mint
* Find widely-scatted junk such as Thumbs.db and .DS_Store files.
* Execute yum clean for CentOS, Fedora, and Red Hat to remove cached package data
* Delete Windows registry keys—often where MRU (most recently used) lists are stored
* Delete the OpenOffice.org recent documents list without deleting the whole Common.xcu file
* Overwrite free disk space to hide previously files

* Surgically remove private information from .ini and JSON configuration files with deleting the whole file

* Vacuum Firefox, Google Chrome, Liferea, Thunderbird, and Yum databases: shrink files without removing data to save space and improve speed


* Prepare whole disk images for compression (common for "ghost" backups and virtual machines) by wiping free disk space


* Delete the Firefox version 3 URL history without deleting the whole file—with optional shredding

* Delete Linux localizations: delete languages you don't use. More powerful than localepurge and available on more Linux distributions.
