Just submitted this information in my last post. The only thing I didn't include was when I was notified and that happened two days ago when I opened CCleaner and got the usual popup stating that a newer version was available. That's the only time I get the update. When I clicked on the update button, it took me to the Piniform website. The only thing it didn't do, that it normally does was start the install. That I had to do from the "Which version - Free or pay" page on your site. I have used CCleaner back when it first came out many years ago and several computers ago. Every time I get a new computer, I down load it directly from Piniform. I did used to go the Hippo many years ago. My default browers is IE 11.0.12 that came with this NEW machine.

Andavari, I only download CCleaner and the other Piniform products from the Piniform web site only. It normally goes into auto down load when I'v clicked on update in the lower corner of the CCleaner program. I am running Windows 8.1, 64 bit

Yesterday I was notified of a new update to CCleaner. Since I have been using the product, as well as Defraggler, Recuva and Speccy for some time, I clicked on the download button. As the download started, Norton started going NUTZ with warnings about Trojans and malware (I sent the report yesterday to your company but no response). The response that I did get was an advertisement for updating CCleaner. Now I find out that your UPDATE not only triggered several warning but has installed several programs that have taken over my Internet Explorer. What they HECK PEOPLE!!! Are you turning into one of those MAKE MORE PROFIT and the customer be dammed companies? I just tried to supply you with the Resolved Security Risks report but the warning says it's too big for your site to upload. I am in the process of removing the search engine that removed my home page and replaced it with yours. I will search for any other hidden programs that you people installed without my knowledge. And I did read the privacy infor and declined any products offered on the download to include Astromedia.
