How to quickly delete .DS_store files

.DS_store are hidden files Mac OS X creates into every folder in order to save non-vital appearance information such as windows position, background and file comments.
These files are generated automatically and are almost invisible to Mac OS X users, anyway, it would be a good idea to delete them if you are going to burn a CD or create a compressed file to share with someone who may adopt another OS, as .DS_store files can result superfluous and annoying.
DS_Store Cleaner is a small piece of software for Mac OS X (Mac OS X 10.3 or later is required) which can help you removing swiftly all .DS_Store files present in a folder and in its sub-folders and can be very useful if you share your compressed archives, CDs or memory sticks: just drag the folder you wish to clean into the application icon and automatically clean it. An alert box will notify about the number of .DS_Store files deleted.
DS_Store Cleaner is freeware and available also for Windows.
