Concern

Recommended Posts

This evening someone tried to send me a mail purporting to come from emails @avast.com the title of which was " your backups will be deleted by October 19th. This did not make it onto my system as I use Mailwasher which stopped it at its server. I deleted it due to the recent issues surrounding CCleaner. Should I be concerned at this mail, is it Malware or a genuine information message from Avast and if so why.

I believe thought it's for android backup program, I've been getting them too

 

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.

It's about 'Avast Mobile Backup' which was discontinued in July 2016.

Worried about 'Tracking Files'? Worried about why some files come back after cleaning? See this link:
