Booby trapped versions inadvertently made available to downloaded in August and September.

All sorted now but you should update, although Piriform say no harm has been done.

If you don't use Ccleaner why not?

I've used Ccleaner for years, it's always worked well doing what it says it will do and I've never had to use the registry back up feature.
