Has CCleaner by Piriform become malware? I haven’t used Piriform apps myself for years, but today I did a tech support call for a business where the CCleaner window popped up without them requesting it, and they couldn’t get it to close. I could only stop it via Task Manager, and then I uninstalled it.

Oh dear, #Piriform: #Avira alleges #Ccleaner has a virus within.

#Ccleaner caught in another scandal. This time it isn't #malware in the supply chain. It's only casually forcing an update to the latest version in addition to resetting #privacy settings and sending user data back to #Avast and #Piriform. Not a good look. #infosec

Pas mal le "load balancing" de #Piriform en faisant deux pages quasiment identiques, juste avec la cible du lien de #Ccleaner qui change pour pointer vers Filehippo en ajoutant "?upgrade" dans l'URL 😂

#Avast und #Piriform:

#Ccleaner-Entwickler wird Teil von Avast Software ...

Zwei verbreitete kostenlose Programme kommen unter eine Verwaltung. Avast Software übernimmt den Macher von Ccleaner, Piriform. Trotzdem soll sich nichts an den bestehenden Produkten verändern, versichert Avast.
