Mac Cleaner
I keep getting ads to download this but am never sure it is a real product :confused5:
Anyone here use it :confused5: |
I would like to say that I'm using Sophos, however, a few weeks ago it started throwing up a nag screen. It is asking to me to give it permissions, but it's not giving the instructions to do so. Basically, it wants me to upgrade to the paid product. :shrug: :rolleyes:
|
Real product, yes. Use it? HELL NO!
There is nothing in it that your Mac needs. :cert: |
It kept hijacking my macs until I downloaded Malwarebytes (free) and got rid of it.
|
Thanks.....I will stay away from it then

I get a lot of ads & web page hijacks for Mac Keeper. Googling says it's a legit product, backed up by an "aggressive" marketing scheme. :Jeff '79:

My college student daughter’s two year old Macbook was also hi-jacked by the insidious “MacKeeper” malware. I took it to a local computer repair place (downtown Plymouth, MI) and was well aware of problem invader. He installed a malware eliminator app (forgot the name of it but its logo is a stylized, corved “M”); and , it found a couple of other parasites. No charge! He said that the malware program license expires in a year and my choice whether whether to keep it. He probably gets a commission if I re-up after a year? He did not scan my credit card). Either way, the computer runs like brand new again.

It’s so cute when Apple customers first encounter malware.

Meh, my MACBOOK just died after 9yrs of service :sadangel: I'll buy another, I just can't get the 17" any longer like I had :slap:
I never had the need or desire to put Mac Cleaner on it :seasix: |
