You can perform a Privacy & Security scan using PC Clean Maestro.  For information about the product follow this link: About PC Clean Maestro

 

Privacy, Security, and Junk:  Daily operation of your PC such as email and online browsing leads to storage of unwanted items we refer to as “junk” files.  There are also traces of personal and confidential information that are stored including passwords, credit card information, and email / chat communications.  The storage of this information occurs without your knowledge or consent.  Over time, the ongoing collection of junk  will result in a slower PC and storage of sensitive information can expose you and your family to identity and security theft.  PC Clean Maestro also includes an Unistaller tool to remove unwanted items and functionality that can disable browser toolbars and add-ons and restore browsers to their original settings.
