Heads Up: CCleaner Infected

I know that CCleaner is popular on this forum. For almost a month it was compromised and installing malware. This is quite serious - it means that Piriform's development servers were probably compromised. CCleaner is owned by Avast which would also be a great target for the bad guys. It doesn't appear that Avast detected this on their own which is also troubling.

Don't update. Uninstall and do a new install of the repaired version.
