Yes this makes we feel real happy (NOT) .The latest from Avast the now parent company states ,the 2nd payload was delivered , we are still investigating ,and the form of malware is very complex ,initiated with a high degree of sophistication by the perps.
This latest update totally refutes all previous media notifications as to the severity and infiltrations of this malware
.
Further i have instigated every means that i know of available ,with my limited IT knowledge as to checking /cleaning /scanning /registry checking .
Yes i updated ,when advised by CCleaner to V5.3 early Sept ,then updated when notified to V5.4 and now to the latest .Even when running full versions of Kasperky Total,, Malwarebytes ,Superantispyware,RKill ,none of these picked it up until after CCleaners initial advice was released to the public.
My machine looks clean NOW but,am i confident ,NO not on your nellie ,Do i fully believe what im being told NO ! Did i have all my passwords accessable ? , No they where encrypted behind a manager but my confidence is shot as to Piriform .
I can feel a Class Action ,somewhere here. Signed signature , Lack of urgency ,Lack of information , Incorrect information, none disclosure ETC ETC.
Tom,there are 2.7 million people out here with possible major implications due to your lack of proceedures and protocols .Piriform was highly respected and obviously had a huge following ?????
