BTW, I've been a long time user of CCleaner free. Pretty much from the earliest versions. It's been a useful app.
I was not effected by the recent CCleaner versions containing malware. Avast, who now owns CCleaner, suggests that installing the latest update removes malware from earlier version. However, some security sites on the Net warn that it doesn't remove all traces of the malware?
The free version of Malwarebytes appears to detect the presence of CCleaner malware. However, I would suggest manually going into the registry, and deleting the malware key entries if they exist. There are several reputable sites on the Net that outline the process.
