Errors in History Cleaner

Has anyone else received errors in the History Cleaner? I am wondering if some files cannot be cleaned.

Well, when searching the forum (section jv16 PowerTools 2008) you'll see those "errors" are not exceptional, on the contrary the are rather usual.

You get those messages most probably because the files are in use at the moment of cleaning...

I just right clicked on them and added them to the Ignore. They are never able to be cleared by jv16 because they are always protected/in use by Windows.
