Does anyone have an opinion on whether THIS (weblifeadvice.com WEtODAwMC0wMDAwMDAwMDAwMDBfX3ZwaWQuLjAxOTAxMDAwLWE wNWQtMTFlNi04MTE1LWQ4NzkxMzNkOWY3M19fY2FpZC4uZWJkY jVlNmYtNWY3ZS00ZDBmLWI5MGYtNDI4ZmE0ODZlMTQzX19ydC4 uUl9fbGlkLi5lNjJlZjMzYS1jMWEwLTRiMzMtYjk5My0zYzg5Y WY0NzI4MmJfX29pZDEuLmE1ZDVjOThmLTJmN2UtNDQ2NC1iZmQ 4LTc0NmJjN2ZhYTgzOV9fdmFyMS4uNTQ0MTE4MF9fdmFyMi4uM jh0aC0yX19yZC4ucGFpZFwuXG91dGJyYWluXC5cY29tX19haWQ uLl9fYWIuLl9fc2lkLi4&source=5441180&ADID=28th-2) is good or bad ??

I'm guessing it's just something like Defender ... CCleaner and a couple of others in a single application. Not looking at it for myself, but for some friends who keep coming to me with "little" problems to fix .... I am no computer tech and have just enough knowledge to get myself in that canoe with no paddle :-)

1428297 2016-11-03 00:28:00 These fix it programs are often snake oil . Like the products you pour into car engines that fix everything
Do a google search, if you find heaps of glowing reviews its often just a scam

It may be 100% OK, do you take the risk (I wouldnt)
Just dont expect fixit programs to magically fix all PC issues , dont be surprised if they make things worse :-)

just some advice , I would avoid freebee fixes for friends . It often doesnt end well .
They want more & more of your time, 'little fixes' can actually be full wipe & reload . They want it done ASAP, doesnt matter if you have other stuff you need to get done
1st .
Then youre responsible for it, forever, and further issues might result in you getting blamed regardless of cause

Last freebe I did , on a Friday I took off to do other things , a quick 'urgent' fix on neighbors PC that was riddled with malware. 3 hours later , there goes most of my day off.
He wasnt impressed when I declined the next time .
Just sayin :)

1428299 2016-11-03 00:47:00 mate, one look at your internet link & alarm bells should be ringing.

look how long it is . Im guessing its a sponsered link , so someone gets affiliate cash from any sales

Dont click it, perhaps a mod could remove it , in case others click it ?

I thought as much about the program and I basically limit my "fixing" to running antivirus scans, etc. I shall give this one a miss and settle with the programs I know are good ... It sounded too good :-)
