YAC is Virus Removal Tool, Registry Cleaner and PC Cleaner, it does not offer any real-time protection.
It is only to cleanup PC's which have already been infected with malware.

The website hides it registrant with Domains by Proxy Service- http://whois.domaintools.com/yac.mx
Registered in Scottsdale, Arizona (United States). It hosting service is located in District Of Columbia - Washington D.C. (United States), it's website indicates their company is located in Basil and has contact info from Basil- http://www.yac.mx/eula but is using url domain from Mexico. This is very suspicious for any company.

Their previous url was- www.virus-delete.com which was associate with several malware domains-https://www.mywot.com/en/forum/36738-isafe-questionable-registy-cleaner-security-scanner

Their previous product was called "iSafe Virus Removal Tool"- https://2aa7-downloads.phpnuke.org/en/c386790/isafe-virus-removal-tool
Which was considered to be a rogue registry cleaner.

So even if they have cleaned up, I still would not trust anything that they developed.

Enjoy!! :D

Also there are reprots that it detected some bad known malwares that scape MBAM and AVAST.
They pay for people to write positive reviews + You can buy facebook likes, youtube likes, comments, twitter followers online for a payment of a certain amount of money.
