Various links below to good AskUbuntu questions & Answers:
K-Lite Codec Pack (KLC) --> Use vlc
or just install all the restricted codecs, i.e.:
sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-codecs
CCleaner --> Lots of choice again - e.g. BleachBit, UbuntuTweak
I would recommend you top enable multiverse repository in software sources:
and then install the package ubuntu-restricted-extras
and ubuntu-restricted-addon
which will install most of the restricted codecs, flashplugin, unrar, microsoft fonts etc. If you need more restricted codecs you may install medibuntu repository as well. You may try mplayer
vlc
as well for multimedia. Other than that there are lists of download manager although I personally prefer DownThemAll of Firefox. As for tuneups and cleaning utility I would like to add ailurus to the mix.
There is not alternative to IDM in Ubuntu but you can use DownThemAll firefox extension Here
sudo apt-get install gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly vlc
sudo apt-get install bleachbit
There is no alternative for TuneUp Utilities in Ubuntu because you dont need it.
sudo apt-get install unrar unzip
