Product Description:

ultimateTask is a comprehensive utility with a simple, easy to use interface, to take care of some of the more important cleanup/maintenance tasks for your computer. ultimateTask is especially useful for System Administrators in charge of many Workstations. While Apple has many of its own utilities, there are times when you need to do certain maintenance tasks of your own choice, at a time of your own choosing. ultimateTask can run them all at once-or individually-from the applications finder menu-and can also be done via Keyboard shortcuts. There are many great Mac utilities out there, but ultimateTask is (and will in the future) be incorporating some of the more essential and useful tasks, into an all-in-one utility.

I think it needs a checkbox for cookies to NOT delete them-I hate having to redo my site passwords all the time;
aa few nice items to add:

1. "Quit Finder" in Finder menu
2. Disable journaling
3. Disable Spotlight

That way I can throw away several overlapping Utilities and just use this
