I have been a CCleaner user for several years with never a problem. Currently using CCleaner v1.40.520 and got the routine update notice this morning. I downloaded CCleaner v1.41.544 (ccsetup141.exe). When I tried to execute this downloaded update file my spyware detection (STOPzilla) immediately identified it as "critical level" spyware and it sighted a file within "ccsetup141.exe" called "Delf.FZ". I noticed the previous posts today saying that BitDefender was giving false-positives of this latest version as having viruses.
STOPzilla seems to think that this latest version of CCleaner has spyware built into it and is labeling it for critical removal.
Does this newest version have any malware, tracking or spyware built into it?

Most definately not.
It is a false postive, please inform your spyware vendor of the problem so they can update their definitions.
