Giveaway of the Day - The Cleaner

[evilfantasy]

The Cleaner never did really catch on but it is a very good product that's been around for years. I have used in malware removal forums from time to time.

Since the full version is free it's a good opportunity to install it as a backup.

Thank you evilfantasy for your opinion

I remember the very first The Cleaner 2.x versions, it was one of the first antitrojan.

I have installed and activated The Cleaner 2010 v 6.x even if I'm not impressed: TClive real time module works, but I coudn't find any autoupdate module.

I notice Ashraf gives it a thumbs down in detecting samples. You too have put it though it's paces... how do you feel it matches up?

Haha. Yes I remember that version. It used to be very slooowww to scan but did a good job. Seems a bit more polished now.

See here. How can I schedule an update on Windows Vista or Windows 7?

Edit: I haven't tested it in a while. Just going by past experience.

Oh crap I missed it.

During SubSeven era, this was the only tool that is able to detect the newly released SubSeven version. But now, most probably it has died down.

I'd better dload it from their official site but not from GOTD. Lost my trust on them..

[safeguy]

I guess I missed it too...but seems like someone leaked the key on the GOTD sticky section...was that key included in a readme.txt file or was it from Activate.exe?

[evilfantasy]

I don't see the key?

Send it to me in a PM and I'll tell you if it's the same as mine.

It was from a readme.txt.
And I downloaded The Cleaner from Moosoft webpage, not from GOTD
