d:\Program_Files\Picasa2\PicasaMediaDetector.exe

Pretty good reg cleaner ccleaner First check the settings, it cleans up app kinds of settings -> which you might want to keep. so read, go thru the tabs, then clean. Does not really make system much faster but good to know what is lying around. have a look at : http://superuser.com/questions/6668/windows-registry-and-system-cleaner-applications

It is 100% free and regularly updated. Warning about usage: CCleaner cleans settings for a lot of programs and by default cleans up settings. So if you install a new program, or update to a new version of CCleaner then it may by default start cleaning the settings for a program you don't realize. So always check the applications tab before running, especially if you find yourself loosing history or settings on a specific program.
I have used this once works well if you know what your doing.
