[Recommended action after security notification?]

So far I've seen lots of technical information about the backdoor trojan security breach in 5.33 but virtually no advice on what action I should take, other than update to 5.34 (which I have done).

I don't really want to revert to a pre-August system backup unless I have to, so what are the risks?

A scan with Malwarebytes seemed to indicate 'petya' in the cc533 setup file - I believe that is ransomware, so was that the objective? Or have all my financial login data etc. been collected and distributed so I need to change all my passwords?

Please, Piriform, give us a clear account of the risks we now face (if any) and some practical advice on limiting the damage.

[Question about cleaning temp folders]

It seems that the analyze option tags the files as beefing used, at least on my system, the last couple of days I have used the run cleaner directly instead of first using the analyze button and the files are now being removed even with the 48 hours rule active

 

 

Did this issue ever get resolved?

I am experiencing exactly the same problem - old unused *.tmp files in C:\Documents and Settings\(User)\Local Settings\Temp are not being cleaned; they do not show up on Analyze but can be manually deleted when listed by %temp%

Otherwise, a great program - thanks!
