CCleaner confirms data breach via MOVEit attack

I guess the last 2 times weren't enough?

 

Yeah here we go again. I just use the portable version these days.

 

That's what I do as well.

Furthermore, I remove the 'x86' and 'x64' folders from it (driver updater), so that I have less bloat.
Bonus: it starts much faster.

 

Thank you for that tip.

 

I find that HiBit Uninstaller has enough cleanup functionality that I have no need to use anything else. CCleaner should have kept its original name.

 

Seems like this shows a potential danger for mergers. When one is hacked, the others could likely be as well.
