My Search Dial?

Why in the world would a great company like Piriform allow such a horrible insidious program like Mysearchdial to attach to their installation? I will have to warn all my students and clients to beware of this terrible situation. I'm so sorry the inevitable black eye Piriform will suffer for sponsoring this virus-like program. Short term money is foolish when it destroys a company's credibility. Shameful.

Mysearchdial is not included when downloaded from either Piriform or the CCleaner builds page.

Where did you download from, and was the correct download button used?

The only thing CCleaner contains is the Google toolbar when you can untick during install. If you use the slim build it doesn't even contain the toolbar.

It would be interesting to find out where it actually was downloaded from.

A quick research quickly popped up another 3 instances of people accidentally downloading Mysearchdial when intending to download CCleaner.

I've kept the links although there's no need for me to post them here.

Let me guess. Some online Asian casino site advertisement? "You a winna!"

Mysearchdial. That sounds so 1998/dial-up. Yeesh.
