Hello, You all might to look at this thread about this problem!! As you will see I have already contacted Kaspersky about this problem and there you can also see the reply they sent me. The link is below http://forum.ccleaner.com/index.php?act=ST...st=0#entry36729 I have pasted my reply below!! Hello, Every week I run an online scanner with Kaspersky and Pandasoftware and expected the usual cookies as usual. But today, I had a shock to find that the Kaspersky online scanner, for the first time ever, detected both CCLEANER 126 and 127 as RiskTool.Win32.PsKill.n I also uploaded it to http://virusscan.jotti.org and www.virustotal.com both of which said that Kaspersky detected this thing!!! I sent an email this morning to Kaspersky and here is their reply: ***************************************************************************************** Hello! This is not a false alarm. This file is detected as not-a-virus:RiskTool.Win32.PsKill.n because it may be used by viruses for malicious purposes. It is legal software, but potential danger present anyway. Such files are detected by extended databases set only. You can switch off extended databases set from your antivirus bases. In this case, software like this, will be not detected in future.

And also why is this in CCLEANER anyway?

You might like to try this scanner www.virustotal.com It's just like virusscan.jotti.org but there they scan with 24 scanners not 15 but the limit to send them is 10MB unlike the 15MB with jotti.
