And do you understand how c++ starts the process?

With out you knowing about it? I can only comment on my own bank but there is not a magic alert that i get sent when ever a transfer is made. If me/some one logged onto my account then by bank assumes its me since the correct information was supplied either by phone or internet banking. I check my statements, and banks do have some intelligence and monitor irregular activity but if they have the information then thats that. We read about it yes, but what the papers forget to mention is MR/MS stupid received a call from some one in India and gave them all there information with out questioning.

I tried to replicate your issue on 3 different machines that had ccleaner installed on. I checked WFS before i un installed. I then un installed ccleaner on each then reinstalled. CCleaner each time opened with WFS not checked. CCleaners built in uninstaller cleans up well after it self.

Personally i would say it's the users fault. Given out information via phone, Email, Post. Not shredding letters is a good culprit. Never give out information to some one who has called you. Regardless, as to the email attachments that just a naive user. It's there own lack of computer knowledge that allowed this virus to get on there machine. Take the i love you virus for example I_LOVE_YOU.TXT.vbs I can see the extension quite clearly, You can, would my 80 year old gran? A virus would have to be on my machine for quite some time to be able to gather all my security information, then still would not be able to transfer money as they would need my bank card, and generated card reader number.

did u try deleting it?

You asked where cleaner got that entry from. No Startup Common C:\PROGRAM FILES\ArcSoft\TOTALMEDIA\TMMONITOR.EXE I listed it.

Why is it a ccleaner issue?

disable entry's are stored under keys HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Shared Tools\MSConfig\startupreg

Do you know how to monitor the registry? http://dw.com.com/redir?edId=3&siteId=4&oId=3000-2094_4-10020841&ontId=2094_4&spi=d02b58b45b67918ad6e7ee1e4d921f18&lop=link&tag=tdw_dltext&ltype=dl_dlnow&pid=10637522&mfgId=50119&merId=50119&pguid=bX@uPgoPjAcAAE3ELx0AAAME&destUrl=http%3A%2F%2Fdownload.cnet.com%2F3001-2094_4-10020841.html%3Fspi%3Dd02b58b45b67918ad6e7ee1e4d921f18 Regmon is a little tool that has sadly been discontinued. Open Regmon.exe In the dialog (include textbox) write CCleaner.exe Then ok Open ccleaner, and a list of entrys should appear. Press ctrl-x to wipe the screen Now click the link. Do not do anything other then this. File - save as - save the .log rename it to ccleaner.txt (piriform does not alloow upload of .log) then maybe i can see

ccleaner shows cpu speed? Where is that located. Never noticed it.....

It's not suspicious. They have registered in loads of forums all with one post. Either mentioning VLC player (there own link) or have it in a signature with no reliant text to the OPs thread.

You are not going to really get much help, because there is nothing for any one to help you with. You are worrying about nothing. CCleaner is taking just over a second to run. Thats good for ccleaner. What on earth are you worried about? What will you do with this .80 of a second? Take ccleaners statement with a pinch of salt. Key word they added "Normally" This is ignoring many factors. Secure file deletion. Amount of junk needed to be deleted. For arguments sake how could ccleaner say it would finish the clean in under a second if i had 3gb of junk and 35 passes set? (not that i would ever advise using 35 passes)

It is strange, i can not replicate this issue in a virtual machine, but can in another user account. Im trying to resolve the issue in the second UA since my way did not resolve it there. i will post back

I was afraid of that after more testing today. Are you a single user or does your os have multiple user accounts?

Thank you hazelnut, I hope the OP reports back with a resolved reply. Would bring a great deal of satisfaction after searching through 1k lines of logs lols.

Just before closing the logs i noticed a conflict with this entry HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\http\shell\open\ddeexec\Application "Firefox" Changing this entry to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\http\shell\open\ddeexec\Application "Opera" Resolved the issue. I re changed it back to "Firefox" then repeated these steps 3 times. Each time with opera set as default browser if this entry did not reflect as "opera" it would cause IE to open. I hope this sorts your issue I am reporting this as a bug to opera.

I captured the Three registry changes that occur during, default browser change, and ccleaner starting the process to open a url. I am not a main opera user, but taking a look it does not set all the protocols by default when becoming the default browser. It may be worth posting on operas forum. I have attached the two files (for got to save third) if you care to look your self. Iv spent a good deal of time searching for possible conflicts and now admitting defeat. FirefoxLog.txt OperaLog.txt

You will need to check what is the default http protocol, Off the top of my head you should really be making it user basis, and not system wide. Which means it wont effect other user accounts. I'm no expert in the protocol so i may be wrong, but check these three settings for "C:\Program Files\Opera\opera.exe" "%1" HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\http\shell\open\command "C:\Program Files\Opera\opera.exe" "%1" HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\http\shell\open\command "C:\Program Files\Opera\opera.exe" "%1" ***EDITED**** Always a good idea to back up the registry before making any changes. edit* i now believe this is not the issue. I will continue to try debug this. I'm suspicious it's a opera bug since the same happens with opera set as default here. Maybe not writing to the registry correctly.

Hello and welcome to the forum. CCleaner allows you to manually add custom files/folders for cleaning. Options - Include Then ccleaner - windows - advanced - check custom files and folders

why are you running so many AV/AM items together? This will do more harm then any good. What are you trying to acheive by registry cleaning?

I only felt guilty because my fianc?e moaned, But since im treating her to 2 weeks in dubai next year she can't say anything for any of you thats interested http://www.stoneisland.co.uk/shadow-project/shadow-project-david-t-teflon-coated-polyester-microfibre-field-jacket-with-concealed-hood-in-black/invt/00531940907v0029/

Hi, you can manually add folders to be cleaned, Options - Include

will be a registry issue not ccleaner

what was i thinking <face>

Hello, CCleaner has never had the ability to detect system shut down. If you think for a second about the possible dangers of this. System is shutting down, CCleaner detects this, trys to force system to stop shutting down. While trying to perform what could be a a long task. Then continue to shut down. It would not be practical for an application to do this. Even though it is possible.
