I know this post you posted is a ways back but you said  ccleaner has been updated and I got a reply back from bleedingcomputer.com. I have that cleaner. I know it is not a rogue but I downladed reg tool because it said it would fix my windows media  player witch it did not and it was a rogue . it said buy and it would fix all my other trouble as will as the windows media player. i unstalled it scan with Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware and the avast scanner. then i wrote bleedingcomputer.com. they ask for a log and said this. this is a copy paste of that part.

First we don not recommend any

registry cleaners they seem to do

more harm than good. So I am

recommending you uninstall

them.

I would like a couple of thoughts on that.
thanks Sharon sham1313

I thought it would be nice to have a special thread where everyone can notify the other members about various program's updates.

I'll start:
- ccleaner has been updated to version 1.16.082 (http://www.ccleaner.com/)
- Winamp has been updated to version 5.07 (http://www.winamp.com/player/free.php)
- CWShredder has been updated to version 2.12 (http://www.intermute.com/spysubtract/cwshredder_download.html)

I am also happy to announce, after a complete overhaul and manual conversion, the hpHosts forums are now back online. Sadly, user accounts were not saved, so you'll need to re-register.

hxxp://forum.hosts-file.net

I am happy that the hpHosts forum is back on line but avast! is reporting a false positive on the blog:

Apple Releases iTunes 8.2, QuickTime 7.6.2

Apple has released versions 8.2 of iTunes and 7.6.2 of QuickTime to address a series of vulnerabilities, mostly in QuickTime.

The one iTunes vulnerability is a stack overflow in parsing "itms:" URLs which can lead to a DOS or arbitrary code execution. 10 vulnerabilities in QuickTime are all of a type that viewing certain malicious content could crash the program or lead to arbitrary code execution. Most of these vulnerabilities affect both Windows and Mac versions.

Such attacks do happen in the real world, and it's a good idea to apply the updates quickly.
