Re: CCleaner now installs with adware? Just for everyone's info - I have sent the link to this topic to my contact at Symantec so it can be reviewed.

| What would really help is for everyone to post the name of the file that was flagged during the scan - go to the Log Viewer / Security Risks for the source and name of the file found.
Thanks !!!

Thanks !!! -amy- This is what I have amy it is not showing a source. I found more details for a 'tracking cookie' that was found this AM that had no details by going to Quick Tasks / View History / Security History / Advanced Details / Risk Properties / Details.
See screenshot for more info - have a look there if you can. [2007 and 2008 versions]

Amy, I'm not showing anything in my Log Viewer / Security Risks for yesterday's date.
FWIW, I submitted the file to Symantec for review.
NAV said it was found in 25 registry entries. Also NAV never made a peep when I downloaded and installed the new version of CCleaner which was when it first come out. It squawked during my weekly full scan.

[att=1][att=2] Thanks for the screenshot and for submitting your item to them. Looks like it may just be registry entries that were found. I'm sure that info will be helpful to Symantec.

My machine was not infected with this to me this is an FP.

My machine was not infected with this to me this is an FP. To clarify - I think that the app was flagged because for whatever reason there were registry entries and / or files that matched this definition. I would think it's a FP, but I am NOT the expert.

The reason I say this is the other day after NIS updated and you know how it runs a quick scan after updating it showed up.Now previously to that there was no unusual behavior going on with my machine and zap all of sudden there it is.Plus it is odd to the fact that this has been around for awhile and it never got flagged before by any of the apps that I have and use regularly.

Amy, I wonder if it could have something to do with the virus update yesterday rather than from the CC upgrade? My upgrade was done around 11/5/07 and no peep from NAV until I did my weekly full scan.
