index.dat Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 Attached is a screenshot of an antivirus scan I ran today which detected an issue with CCleaner. Is this a legitimate problem or a false positive? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Nergal Posted September 26, 2017 Moderators Share Posted September 26, 2017 What you have there is the installer for ccleaner 5.33. There is indeed a virus in it. The latest version 5.35 is not infected. ADVICE FOR USING CCleaner'S REGISTRY INTEGRITY SECTION DON'T JUST CLEAN EVERYTHING THAT'S CHECKED OFF. Do your Registry Cleaning in small bits (at the very least Check-mark by Check-mark) ALWAYS BACKUP THE ENTRY, YOU NEVER KNOW WHAT YOU'LL BREAK IF YOU DON'T.
