I have dumped Ccleaner and just use the widows disk cleaner now. I have been thinking about dumping my Avast anti virus now, So any other good ones out there that don't dump Malware on you or sell your data like AVG.

What do you guys think of Avira?
Before Avast went down the chutes I used to use Avast & Avira as my emergency AV's to double check I was clean if I ever had any doubts. If this keeps up I'm going to miss Ccleaner, a utility I have used since its icon was a yellow circle and it would just delete cookies. I found a copy & key from Mar 2017: ccsetup528_pro in a backup folder. |

I used to use Avira's suite, until some years ago their scanner fell into a reliability crisis of some kind, I then left them two, three years ago, but since then they seem to be on a path of recovering. Currently using G-Data.

Don't know, don't care, I just use a very old version to easily delete temp files, and do no updates anymore.
Updates to Windows 10 and software runnign under Windows seem to be a bigger and bigger risk in temselves. I do not even use a dedicated security suite for my Windows 10 machine anymore, just the Windows 10 Defender onboard thing. But then, my W10 machine is exclusively a game console. Compared to what the rules were 5 and 10 years ago, upsides have been turned down, and things were u-turned. Who would claim he saw it coming in this excessive level of distortion? Not before W8 was released I understood where things were heading.

Hi CTU
No, as soon as it became known they updated to a clean application. Peter
