Anyone else using Sims 2 Categorizer?

I'm having problems with it, and I would've asked at SimWardrobe, but there's no contact info whatsoever on that site.

Everytime I try to delete a recolourable object, the program says "checking for recolours", and then freezes. I've tried letting it run for a while, but it just stays frozen.

Has anyone been able to successfully use this program? It seems like a pretty good idea really, if only it would work.

How big is your downloads folder?    It takes forever for it to hunt for recolors on mine 2 but it does eventually delete the object.  But to make time go faster for me, I have my downloads folder open as the program is open and delete the files manually, and then refresh the program.  Works find like that for me.  I don't think there is a way to by pass the "searching for recolors" thing.

Hmm. I'll bet that's it, as my d/ls folder is gigantic. 6.5 gigs.  But I'm really making an effort to trim it down.

I am the queen of impatience and that program runs way too slow for me. I tried doing it like rome_raven, but everytime I open a folder on top of that one it crashes.

I haven't had too many problems with it, but I am very careful to put stuff in their own subfolders before trying to open it in that program.

I'm still hoping someone makes a program like that for clothes.

I'm certain that someone said there was already a clothing catergoriser in the pipeline... That will be a very nifty little tool for getting rid of all the lame stuff I've got hanging around in my downloads folder.

i'm wondering if it's possible to find recolors that don't have meshes...searching the threads on sims 2 categorizer yielded no results on this.
when the sims 2 first came out, I had no idea that you had to first delete all recolors to get rid of everything connected to the object mesh.
so, i'm guessing that i have a bazillion unconnected recolors now, lol. 
can anyone suggest what i can do to find these, either by using sims 2 categorizer or another method?
it would slim down my downloads folder by quite a lot, i'm guessing! 
it'd be great to get anyone's input on this.
thank you kindly!
