MyCleanPC has to be a joke, right? I mean none of us are going to try them most likely, but I see those commercials and don't know what to think other than it must be easy money for someone to remotely hop onto your PC and run CCleaner. LOL
What do you think?

I just visited their home page and it looks like some glorified registry cleaner and quasi Windows system tweaker is their primary pitch.
What a freakin' joke. What is worse is that millions of people will make these guys millionaires for really doing nothing at all except profiting off of paranoia that could be easily extinguished via local tools already on their Windows systems.

That puts things in perspective. I expect too much out of humans, across the board. LOL It is a flaw of mine.

They are just trying to get your money.Probably tells you to run a scan on your PC and then tells you you have Viruses and Malware and if you buy their software it will magically make your PC like new.I wouldnt use it but the commercials are quite humorous.

I couldnt agree more.Its a shame because there is so much free help online.

Check out Wot rating

It is a known television ad scam.

They even use a Mac with Windows BSOD in their commercials.
The BSOD was fake, so was the Windows errors and crashes.

They have been taken to court many times for false advertising and had to pay heavy fees. I'm surprised they are still in business.

Thanks.

I will have to pay more attention next time the commercial is on I never noticed that.

MyCleanPC asks:
"Does it takes more than three seconds for your email to load?" Yes because not everyone's internet is that fast.
"Are you frustrated with error messages..." Not exactly if I'm doing something wrong then it's good to get an error and so I can fix that mistake.
...blue screens, computer freezes, and crashes?" Blue screens haven't had one, computer freezes upgrade to a better OS, crashes aren't those blue screens?
"If you are experiencing any of these symptoms, your computer and privacy may be at risk because these are usually the tell tale signs of a virus." Or a legit program with high ram and/or CPU. unexpected hardware, system, or program failures. Your computer may be just slow.
Now I heard that the scan is free but you have to pay for removal.
"Even if you have anti-virus software your computer may still be infected." I think that is the only thing that is true, but which would you chose advice from security experts and others who have actually tried software that has been proven effective or a repetitive commercial. So hard to choose... Experts.

I found that MyCleanPC is under new ownership of USTechSupport it used to be under CyberDefender Corp (second 43).

Another thing is it is just a fake registry cleaner it doesn't ever detect malware period like the television advertisement claims.

They are several reviews of it on Youtube, one in particular where a user just installs Windows 7 at default settings and run the scan and it finds a lot of non-existent errors and suggest you to buy to fix them. I wished I could find that video.

It's a total scam, CCleaner is free and trusted. I have read reports that it actually uses an open-source freeware as its scanning engine, but charges people to use it. The main difference is it is setup to always find errors where they exists or not during the free scans.

Their older television advertisement use a Mac Book with Windows BSOD and errors. The new advertisements corrected the errors.

All the ads on Youtube have commits closed because they know it is a scam and people will alert others.

Enjoy!!

It is not the same video that I was referring to, but it pretty much explains the exact same thing. The one I was talking about was a new Windows 7 system.

Enjoy!!

I thought Anonymous was a force for good that is supposed to constantly crash sites like MyCleanPC, yet they are no where to be found; NOW THAT IS TRULY "ANONYMOUS". LOL

 

[Deleted member 178]

they have shares on it, so they can expend their botnets :lolz:

I thinking I should give them a call and ask many tough questions while portraying a positive attitude just see how they respond---man how the lies will start flying once they attempt to answer those questions!
