Does anyone happen to use Advanced System Care pro from Iobit? If so, could anyone confirm if version Advanced SystemCare Pro 5.0.0.152 is the final version? Website still shows version 4 to download, their forums still have info on the Beta of version 5 only, yet there are sites already showing the version above mentioned.

Google Advanced SystemCare Pro 5 and you will see links with version 5.0.0.150.

I checked one of the download links and it points to LINK, which is from their official site, although by going to the site itself, I am unable to locate such link...

I think I will download and run it on VMWARE to verify.

Update: Leak of the Official version was posted on several sites including torrent sites. Official website still doesn't have it updated nor any change log available.
Final version is 5.0.0.152

Update:
Couldn't be asked to fire up VMWARE so I just installed on my host. It is not 5.0.0.150 like the sites are reporting but 5.0.0.152! Their official website only has version 4 published so far.

Question is: is it a leak of final or another beta stage?

Problem is: on their forums there is no word on final version 5 release, and the latest beta was no way near 5.0.0.150 or even 5.0.0.152.


I suspect either a Leak or they haven't updated the site.

Funny thing is Google will display 5.0.0.150 yet version from the Iobit link I posted above installs 5.0.0.152.

Not to mention there is no change log to be found anywhere nor confirmation that the bugs on Beta 3 for version 5 were fully fixed.

I better install it on VMWARE and test it out.

Update: I am asking on their forums for more information.

looks like final to me; you usually get a pop up that it is a beta product.

I am starting to think this was a leak since not even CNET has version 5 to download...

Just did a quick search and most torrents are reporting 5.0.0.150. Only one that has 5.0.0.152 is nsanedown (not a torrent site).

Still what troubles me the most is: There is no change log available!

Hey, they are stealers, beware!..

Look on Malwarebytes forum here: IOBit Steals Malwarebytes' Intellectual Property: http://forums.malwarebytes.org/index.php?showtopic=29681

.. and here: IOBit's Denial of Theft Unconvincing: http://forums.malwarebytes.org/index.php?showtopic=30989

.. for example.

I stay away, because the word 'morality' has a meaning for me.

If you follow the thread I created on their forum, you going to see that no one has a clue...
Since I now have it installed on VMWARE going do some testing in a bit.

Funny, according to the Malwarebytes post, Download.com (CNET) and Majorgeeks were emailed to remove Iobit software, yet they still have it (since time of incident 2009)...

Nevertheless, I'm still testing on VMWARE and so far it is ok...
