And just why does it take "a few hours"?

Should take a matter of minutes. I've compiled many setup applications and they take minutes to do. Hours is a rather lame excuse to get people to download a version with a toolbar to make a few bucks.

Better yet, remove the toolbar completely.

Hello to all. I just want to ask why Antivir v.7 reports that CCleaner has "SPR/KILLPROG.DLL program signature" ... is it a virus or a false positive?

Regards.

Antivir is a false positive whore.

Yeah but has saved me from lots of trojans and it's free. Version 7 is a beta and it is the second false positive in 3 monhts when I installed it.

Well, I will install CCleaner then.

Thanks

Have you tried the toolbar free versions? I wouldn't be surprised if they don't have that same problem.

Hi. No, I haven't tried it yet. Where can I find it? because to be sincere I am kindda doubtful about this new version.

I installed it at 12:45 pm Eastern Standard Time - and simply unclicked the box that said "install yahoo ccleaner toolbar" - pretty straight forward.

Thanks Mr. G. - wonderful program.

I did the same but the antivirus popped up anyway...
Maybe it's just a false positive but I want to be on the safe side.
BTW, this is the first time I was offered to install a 3rd party program along with CCleaner. Previous versions were clean right?

I just tested them on Jotti and only the version with the toolbar detected CCleaner with a trojan.

Yes, previous versions were clean. Now we get bloat and crap with Crap Cleaner.

Many thanks Tarun. I think CCleaner creator should make available both versions (clean and with toolbars) in the main download page.

Regards and thanks again.

Just uninstall it. The toolbar isn't binded with it. It only takes a few seconds to uninstall the toolbar.

Uninstall then reboot and reinstall CCleaner. Unclick yahoo toolbar (it is the first I have seen it offered - but that's your free choice). One other thing I use Mcafee firewall and antivirus and have Computer Associates Pest Patrol in memory - you might want to add those programs if you have an always on cable modem)

It should be more noticable. Maybe an extra window and picture that shows the Toolbar.

Give Andavari lots of money and maybe even consider getting K a DVD-RW drive.

Agreed!
