  1. Thank you so very much! I couldn't believe how quickly that happened and I was in the middle of doing something else, so I appreciate the prompt reply. It worked and I just received the confirmation email. Now, the next problem to think about is the new update for Firefox and hoping it won't cause problems. Thanks again,
  2. I didn't know where to post this, but figured someone might be able to help with this. If I need to post to a different forum, please direct me there. I'm having computer problems and while waiting for my email to return to the front page, the mouse clicked on the link - List-Unsubscribe: <http://www.piriform.net/news/unsubscribe.php? I'm not sure where to go to subscribe again, so would appreciate any suggestion. Thanks, Ann
  3. First of all, thanks to all who have responded with such helpful suggestions. Second, please accept my apology for the delay in being able to return. It's canning/freezing season here and I've hardly had a minute to do anything else. Vic, thank you. I do have Firefox and yes, the box said "scanning for viruses". I just tried your suggestion with calling up Tools, Downloads, etc. and it did show a symbol for what looked like CCleaner, along with a box saying it could contain corrupted files (or something similar) and did I want to continue. I clicked 'no', intending to come back to ask what I should do, and then when I opened it again to see what it said so I could tell you, clicked 'ok' by mistake. A page came up with 15 icons! I know I tried to get it many times over the past couple wks. I clicked on one with the number 224 (some had 223) and finally, I got the page for installing CCleaner again. Whew~! DennisD, I was about to try your suggestion when I noticed Vic's post and thought I'd try it first. ePost, thank you too. I have AVG, ZoneAlarm, AdAware, Spybot, and SpywareBlaster. I don't know about malware, but as soon as I can find a few minutes, will try your suggestion for Malwarebytes. My machine has been running very slow, but I have so many things in Favorites and many notepads, so contribute that to the problem. Also, thanks for the help with downloading the CCleaner, as it's sometimes confusing. It generally comes up with the one for Paypal, and since we've contributed twice, can't do it every time a new update is available, so I have to figure out which link to click. Sorry to be so long, but one more thing: This forum is great, but I had trouble finding out where I posted later when I came back. There are so many different topics and pages. When I found it, I left it at the bottom in the tray. Is there an easy way to find the different topics or does it require staying here until you learn it all? Yikes ! I would enjoy having a little time to research some further information about CCleaner, so I can learn about the different settings. Best Regards, PS: I never did uninstall CCleaner before to do the updates, but this time, when I couldn't get the new update to work, found the forum and took the advice where someone had mentioned doing that.
  4. Hi, Thanks for the suggestion. However, since I had uninstalled CCleaner from my computer, it's not showing there as it's no longer in my computer. I realize it's not for scanning viruses and such, but when anything starts to download on my computer, a box comes up with lines going across which states at the bottom, "Scanning for viruses." That's so nothing is picked up from whatever is about to download and won't PLACE a virus on my machine. Hope I'm saying this correctly, as I'm not real knowledgeable in techie terms. I call up CCleaner when I close down to clean out cookies, etc. I hope someone is able to help me get it back. My husband did Paypal a good donation a few months ago and I feel comfortable knowing CCleaner is a good product to use so don't like being without it.
  5. Hi there~ A couple wks. ago when closing down for the night, as I was running CCleaner, it asked if I wanted to download the new version. I didn't have time and clicked "no". A few days later when I tried to download it, it wouldn't put the icon on my desktop. I've since tried to get it several times with the same results. It goes through the motion of scaning for virus', etc. but there's no where I can find the icon. Tonight I tried again and have spent the whole evening over this. I found the forum and finally, a post stating all the things to do if the install wouldn't work. I've done all the hints, including unstalling the old version, closing down and rebooting, but still have been unable to get my CCleaner back. I'm late for bed now, but hope someone has a suggestion that might help and will check back tomorrow. Thanks,
