Hi again...y'awll...
Well, I am on the war path once more, along with the Ultihost & others.
A few months ago...
For reference >
https://forum.avast.com/index.php?topic=217752.0I thought that I was safe after I uninstalled their latest abomination of CCleaner v5.41.xxxx & re-installed my favourite v2.34.xxxx,
but NO.
Avast, "in their mis-guided wisdom" decided to update MY CCleaner v2.34.xxxx again.
&, again WITHOUT MY PERMISSION or any kind of notification.
AVAST!!!!....You DO NOT HAVE THE RIGHT to update any of MY bloody programs, no matter what they are or what they do, where they come from.
I demand that you stop this kind of behavior IMMEDIATELY!
You are just an anti-virus program, NOT an update checker of/for old/er programs on OUR M/C's.
Cease & desist.

@ Bob,
That's all fine 'n' dandy....The only problem is that it's the latest v5.42.xxxx & we DO NOT WANT the latest version.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
@ Asyn,
I think that I'd much prefer if you linked to the original thread that I started back on 30th March & not just the "reason why the update was carried out."
I'm pretty sure that we can all read the entire thread & what transpired over the next month.
Thank you.

@ Azraelbuc,
Many thanks for the info.
I will, hopefully, never have to see that MY CCleaner v2.34.1200 has been updated & will NEVER be updated...again....EVER!
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
To all concerned re; these totally outrageous, un-notified & un-authorized updates to our programs.
Use the info so provided by Azraelbuc, because it works.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Thanks to all & to all a good night.
Regs, Mike..
ps. If anyone wants the good ol' version 2.34.1200....let me know & I'll chuck it onto my mediafire site.
Sorry but I don't have any other version/s & you cannot get them from any of the "recognized "old program sites"."
AVAST saw to that.
