GS, I attempted to update Ccleaner from you link in "News In Brief" today and MalwareBytes Blocked the link twice. I also ran Ccleaner as I usually do every day and did not get a notification o fan update available

What version of CCleaner do you have? If it is all already 3.28 you do not need it. What link did you choose? There are several deceptive adds.

Oren, I have version 3.27.1900, the link was in News In Brief and the link was Ccleaner 3.28 available for download under Misc.

I do not see a link to it in that article other than to the portable. Not near my computer now so can't try things.

I Just looked at it again and it is under Miscellaneous directly under "Exploit which gave admin rights gets fixed in Ubuntu 12.10" it is the fourth one down under Misc.

@ tsmith777,

Thanks for the feedback, however that update is as Xhi says for the portable version. After running scans on both the zipped file and extracted files with MSE, SAS and MBAM, I have found no problems with it.

It could be that MBAM issued an FP due to the download location (although it shouldn't have).

But the link is fine, all checks out.
