VT flags the CCleaner download as infested with adware ( Win.Adware.Adgazelle-9). This adware is the opt-in Google component of the installer that is being detected as adware).
Potentially harmless - seems the file is safe to use!
Anyone?

ESET got it right, bundled with google toolbar
And those who dont want it can opt out or use the slim installer http://www.piriform.com/ccleaner/builds
Yep, Pondus, it is a pity we seldom see an opt-out for these bundled goodies. But as it isn’t it malicious as such, but probably only unwanted this bundled adware comes as an opt-in! Loads of developers now start bundling adware to pay for “their kettles of hot water boiling”. ;D

Price of shipping 3rd party tools. People is becoming sick of that…
Just updated CCleaner via program update. Checked downloaded file w/MBAM free, nothing detected. Not aware of an issue with PUP’s; update link will take you directly to the Piriform website and you can get your latest CC program file from there.
