CCleaner is clobbering Process Lasso's ProcessControl COM registration

Hi,

 

I just received a user report that CCleaner is wiping out the COM registration of a Process Lasso dependency. I had received a few reports of this happening, and suspected a registry cleaner, but just got confirmation that CCleaner is the culprit.

 

I haven't done extended testing, and the user affected is using Windows 7 RC1. I can't comment on which OSes are affected (maybe all, maybe only Win7).

 

I am also still looking into why CCleaner is flagging these entries. In the meantime, can you please address this problem by adding a hard-coded exclusion or fixing any errata that may be causing the deletion of these registry keys? I've attached a couple screen shots to indicate the registry keys that are being inappropriately deleted.

If you need anything from me, just let me know. Also, if I discover any further information, I'll post it here.

 

Thank you,

Jeremy Collake
