Clearing Clutter?

[FLCL]

So I'm fairly new to linux, and i was wondering if there are any tools like Ccleaner for windows, to clear all the clutter that builds up from just opening/closing, and just doing anything but sitting at the desktop haha. You know, cookies, cache's etc.
Or is it completely unnecessary to have such a tool because clutter isnt there?

unnecessary, it just doesn't happen. as for cookies etc... just use clear private data from firefoxs tool menu or thru the preferences
