If you cannot search Google using the Omnibox, see the instructions in the 0.8.5 release notes . o Now the usage statistics for the default search engines will be reset to zero (instead of deleting them). o Non-default search engines will be removed because the browser automatically, quietly adds them for many sites (such as CNN, Youtube, and many others) while you browse, so it creates a usage history.

Before using this option, close all other running applications because they may be automatically killed by Linux. ------------------------------------------------------------------- Fri Apr 16 15:38:43 UTC 2010 - saigkill@opensuse.org - The following changes have been made since 0.7.3: * Add new privacy feature: click File - Shred Files and Quit. This removes all BleachBit settings as if you never ran BleachBit, so other people can't tell you have. * Use EIC binary prefixes (e.g., 1KiB=1000 bytes) instead of SI binary prefixes (e.g., 1kB=1024B) because EIC is the proper standard for disk space. For more information see see Wikipedia's Binary Prefix article and Ubuntu's unit policy. * Fix bug removing paths in preferences dialog. * Add translation contexts for more accurate translations. * Fix deleting files with non-ASCII names. * Specific to Linux o Add package for Ubuntu Lucid Lynx (10.04). o Fix GTK+ depreciation warnings. o Fix crash on Ubuntu (only seen on BleachBit as packaged in the Ubuntu repository). o Remove translations from RHEL 5.0 and CentOS 5.0 because their ancient gettext version 0.14 does not support translation contexts. ------------------------------------------------------------------- Sun Feb 21 10:40:31 UTC 2010 - saigkill@opensuse.org - updated to Version 0.7.3 - The following changes have been made since 0.7.2: * Cleans Mozilla Thunderbird versions 2 and 3. * Specific to Linux o Clean Screenlets (thanks to MixCool). ------------------------------------------------------------------- Tue Dec 1 11:05:42 UTC 2009 - saigkill@opensuse.org - updated to Version 0.7.2 - Fix deleting Firefox version 3 passwords. - Add new menu option to show system information useful for reporting bugs. Click Help - System Information. - Specific to Linux * Clean Konqueror cache, history, and cookies. * Fix bug launching BleachBit as Administrator on Ubuntu and Debian. * Improve the completion notification: do not show if the BleachBit application window is in focus, and if it is not, automatically remove the notification after 10 seconds. ------------------------------------------------------------------- Mon Nov 9 20:33:38 UTC 2009 - saigkill@opensuse.org - The following changes have been made since 0.7.0: * When clicking File - Shred, default to the home directory instead of a system directory. * Improve the usability of the security warning dialog (typically only seen in portable mode). * Improve the appearance of the preferences dialog on some non-English languages. * Do not include the tests as part of the standard installation to save disk space. * Specific to Linux o After taking longer than 10 seconds to finish, show a non-intrusive notification. o Fix handling of filenames with invalid encoding that could have caused an application freeze. o Add warning for Nautilus. o Delete Apache logs (thanks to Roman Horník) o Clean more of Emesene 1.0 cache (thanks to Danilo Piazzalunga) o Bonus pack + Fix system logs cleaner + Clean XBMC Media Center (thanks to Roman Horník) ------------------------------------------------------------------- Fri Oct 16 18:17:59 UTC 2009 - saigkill@opensuse.org - Reworked Spec (Provides/Obsoletes) ------------------------------------------------------------------- Wed Sep 30 18:46:46 UTC 2009 - saigkill@opensuse.org - updated to version 0.6.5 - Since 0.6.4: * Vacuum Google Chrome * Delete Google Chrome 3's history * Clean Emesene cache * Clean Adanaxis, Gnome Art Manager, Notify OSD, PDFedit, Phatch, PlayOnLinux, system logs, Virt-manager, and X-Moto (all part of the new bonus cleaners package) * Add a portable package for Windows * Update 18 translations * Fix bugs * Expand the unit tests significantly ------------------------------------------------------------------- Mon Sep 21 10:57:58 UTC 2009 - saigkill@opensuse.org - updaded to version 0.6.4 - The following changes are included since 0.6.3: * Add command line interface. Often requested as a new feature, the command line interface lets you invoke BleachBit from scripts, cron, batch files, or the Windows Task Scheduler. For example, BleachBit can automatically vacuum Firefox each night or each time you login. * At the end of the log, show how many files were deleted, how many special operations were performed, and how many errors occurred, if any. Before only the size was shown. * When you close BleachBit while it is wiping free disk space, BleachBit will now quickly stop wiping free disk space. * When manually shredding files (by clicking File - Shred Files), BleachBit now ignores the related preference regarding overwriting files. * Make BleachBit easier to port to other POSIX systems such as NetBSD. (BleachBit is already available in NetBSD.) * Fix two spelling typos. * Fix small bugs. * Improve unit tests. * Specific to Linux o Honour GNOME appearance settings for toolbars (text below icon, icon only, etc). o Fix Yum error checking for non-English languages. ------------------------------------------------------------------- Fri Aug 28 19:18:55 UTC 2009 - saigkill@opensuse.org - updated to version 0.6.3 - The following changes are included since 0.6.1: * More thoroughly wipe free disk space. BleachBit now tries to wipe inodes on Linux and the NTFS MFT (Master File Table) on Windows to hide metadata of deleted files. The metadata includes details such as the filename, file size, and modification date. Initial testing shows this is effective on ext3 (the most common Linux filesystem), ext4, and Microsoft's NTFS. * In case of certain errors deleting a file or directory, BleachBit will no longer skip other files that can be deleted. * Specific to Windows o Delete Windows system log files. o Delete Microsoft Office 2007 diagnostic log files. o Don't stop deleting when a directory cannot be removed because it is not empty. o Include better links in Control Panel's Add/Remove Programs. ------------------------------------------------------------------- Mon Aug 17 19:02:39 UTC 2009 - saigkill@opensuse.org - updated to Version 0.6.1 - The following changes are included since 0.6.0: * Overwrite free disk space. Files are deleted "insecurely" in four typical situations: in BleachBit with shredding disabled, with certain BleachBit operations that don't support shredding, with filesystems that don't support shredding, and most deletions outside of BleachBit. These files can often be undeleted. Even if you use the Linux ext3 filesystem, for example, which doesn't support undelete, the file contents can sometimes still be recovered with only moderate technical skill. The new BleachBit option overwrites all the free space to prevent recovery. Besides privacy, a popular use for wiping free space is dramatically increasing compression ratios for archiving whole disk images ("ghost" backups) and virtual machines. Before using the option, check its settings in the preferences menu. This option is slow: each gigabyte of free takes 15 seconds on my machine. * When shredding files manually (from the file menu), show a preview and a list of those that were actually deleted. * When confirming delete, treat closing the confirmation dialog the same as cancelling. * Cleanup code. * Specific to Linux o Vacuum the gPodder SQLite database and delete the cache thanks to shane.fox. o Erase Nautilus usage history thanks to MixCool. Specifically, this cleaner deletes the saved session files and "metafiles." Besides taking a fair amount of space, these XML files record usage activity as a side effect of tracking Nautilus window positions and emblems. You may be surprised what this cleaner uncovers. o Work around a bug in GNOME 2.26, so the recent documents list can be deleted. o Vacuum the Yum SQLite databases (for Fedora, Red Hat, CentOS). o When running yum clean all enable all repositories. o Require package python-xml on OpenSUSE 11.1 (reported by rvpittman). ------------------------------------------------------------------- Mon Aug 3 09:05:23 CEST 2009 - saigkill@opensuse.org - updated to Version 0.6.0 ------------------------------------------------------------------- Fri Jul 31 22:55:42 CEST 2009 - saigkill@opensuse.org - added make clean ------------------------------------------------------------------- Thu Jul 16 21:20:59 CEST 2009 - saigkill@opensuse.org - updated to Version 0.5.4 ------------------------------------------------------------------- Wed Jul 1 17:53:13 CEST 2009 - saigkill@opensuse.org - updated to Version 0.5.3 ------------------------------------------------------------------- Mon Jun 22 17:47:20 CEST 2009 - saigkill@opensuse.org - updated to Version 0.5.2 ------------------------------------------------------------------- Thu Jun 11 18:55:36 CEST 2009 - saigkill@opensuse.org - updated to Version 0.5.1 ------------------------------------------------------------------- Sun May 31 22:09:33 CEST 2009 - saigkill@opensuse.org - fixed options for Factory ------------------------------------------------------------------- Sat May 30 23:36:47 CEST 2009 - saigkill@opensuse.org - updated to Version 0.5.0 ------------------------------------------------------------------- Mon May 11 14:55:33 CEST 2009 - saigkill@opensuse.org - updated to version 0.4.2 ------------------------------------------------------------------ Sat Apr 18 11:20:10 CEST 2009 - saigkill@opensuse.org - Initial Version of bleachbit - branched for Contrib
