Moderators Andavari Posted October 26, 2009 Moderators Share Posted October 26, 2009 I just got a message to say the web page was unsafe !! It's just the eBay Shortcuts add-on, just untick it during installation to opt-out of installing it and you'll be safe and clean. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corona Posted October 27, 2009 Share Posted October 27, 2009 When it comes to installing I pay attention to every non-EULA screen, especially any with check-able boxes. And I always choose custom install over standard install. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ishan_rulz Posted October 27, 2009 Share Posted October 27, 2009 The update was pretty pointless. I am waiting for 64bit support Simplicity is hard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fireryone Posted October 27, 2009 Share Posted October 27, 2009 No idea where you are getting that from fluff, Unlocker has been a safe clean program for years, and only now does it include a optional shortcuts (Yes I've installed this version and can unselect the shortcuts just fine) MyWOT: http://www.mywot.com/en/scorecard/ccollomb...comment#comment Only 2 posts complaining about ebay shortcuts "infested with ebay shortcut" lol SiteAdvisor: http://www.siteadvisor.com/sites/ccollomb.free.fr/summary/ Only one person posted twice in Site Advisor claiming "Trojan". fireryone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

login123 Posted October 27, 2009 Share Posted October 27, 2009 Just uninstalled v. 1.8.7, installed v. 1.8.8...unticked the ebay shortcuts box. No alarms sounded, no ebay shortcut installed. Just uninstalled v. 1.8.8, reinstalled 1.8.7. No alarms sounded, no ebay shortcut installed. Both versions put a file in the program folder called eBay_shortcuts_1016 dot exe. Scan w/ MBAM was negative, scan w/ Avast! was negative. If you click on it it installs that shortcut, but still no alarm. I just deleted it. Also the ebay shortcut from the desktop. changelog from the authors page says "Unlocker 1.8.8 - 26/10/2009 - Improved behavior: Improved the way DLLs are unloaded. - Promotional feature: Added fully optional shortcuts to eBay during the installation. Simply untick "eBay shortcuts" in the choose components page during install if you do not wish to have those." Guess its safe. edit, 28 Oct: Not sure if v. 1.8.7 installs ebay or not. Couldn't restart, so it may have just not been removed. Doesn't matter much, just wanted to be accurate. The CCleaner SLIM version is always released a bit after any new version; when it is it will be HERE :-) Pssssst: ... It isn't really a cloud. Its a bunch of big, giant servers.

JDPower Posted October 28, 2009 Share Posted October 28, 2009 Both versions put a file in the program folder called eBay_shortcuts_1016 dot exe So it does, thanks for pointing that out, is now deleted (just to be on the safe side) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Andavari Posted October 28, 2009 Moderators Share Posted October 28, 2009 Scan w/ MBAM was negative, scan w/ Avast! was negative. You have to manually unpack installers for MBAM to even detect the eBay Shortcuts. See here for reference about MBAM's detection of eBay Shortcuts in particular my post in there.
