We've all read about the "load" that some recent versions of CCleaner carried, and I know this is probably preaching to the converted, but yesterday I came across a couple more because IOLO SYSTEM MECHANIC "SYSTEM SHIELD" (which I had never used before) threw up some deep in the files of:
- "Hirens Boot Disk"
- "Partition Magic 2000" (OK, I know it's an old version, but it still basically works on more modern WIN OS's.)
Took me quite a time to clean out all the instances of both utilities from my system & NAS.
BTW: Norton Security Premium had consistently failed to identify either of those
So, anyone got any other similar warnings?
