SlimCleaner Plus is a promotional add-on that brings trouble. So, you also should think about the browser add-on that you want to install.
#Slimcleaner plus virus install#
Will you install software if you did not hear about its producer? I suggest you not to. You should know that to install a browser add-on is like installing a program. It is better not to install browser extensions at all.īut if you still are eager to install any browser extension so you should be ready that the extension will receive permission to collect your private information that you enter on various websites and can sell it to the third companies. But is not an absolute defense from internet criminals and computer threats. Of course there is a good solution for this problem: download extensions from reputed and dependable software vendors only. Internet swindler can use the browser extension like a door to the computer. But if you download any extension, then software companies cannot be sure that your PC will not be infected. All software editors produce security patches and worry about the safety of their users. No other Antivirus/Malware tools have flagged SlimCleaner Plus, and given a choice I am inclined to keep SlimCleaner Plus and Dis MalwareBytes for one of the many alternatives (which don't arbitrarily delete desired programs), unless someone can convince me that SlimCleaner Plus is actually a threat.It does not matter what kind of browser extension you are going to download, it can be the weak point for the browser.
#Slimcleaner plus virus driver#
I was able to turn off the driver Download feature in SlimCleaner as I had no use for it, so that was a no brainer. I did find references to Driver Downloader (which came with Slim Cleaner), claiming that once the 1-year free trial ended, it would constantly prompt for a lic renewal. I did find one reference claiming that it is Malware but the author did not seem to remember installing SlimCleaner and "threat' reference seem to be based solely on the MWB flag, and not on any tangible claim of concern. but little claiming it is actually a threat. I have searched this forum and found several references to Slimcleaner Plus in Log Files and Registry dumps.
#Slimcleaner plus virus update#
That "Add SlimCleaner' option is no longer offered with the latest update of MWB. Though the Slimcleaner Plus ICONS are no longer disapearing from my desktop, they will no longer launch Slimcleaner, unless I disable MWB and reinstall. I then noticed in the MWB system tray a setting to "add Slimcleaner Plus" to the do not flag list. I again told MWB that it was "wanted" SW and the process repeats.

Once turned back on, MWB would again flag it as "Potentially Unwanted". attempts to reinstall SlimCleaner Plus would fail, unless I turned off all MWB features first. I set MWB to ignore the program, then the ICON for Slimcleaner started disappearing from my desktop. Until recently!įirst MWB started flagging SlimCleaner Plus as "potentially unwanted Software". I then purchased MalewareBytes for the same PCs and for more than a year, they have happily co-existed. I have used several copies for years and have always been happy with the performance of the tool. PC Mag has rated Slimcleaner Plus one of its best for-Profit PC Optimizers for years.
