The efficiency of Max Computer Cleaner’s so called functions is debatable, and you shouldn’t trust it to actually increase  or make anything better for your computer, specially since this program itself is considered a potentially unwanted program by several security software. If you want to use an optimization tool we advice you to browse for another one, and to remove Max Computer Cleaner as soon as possible if you have it installed.

  • Max Computer Cleaner is a malware and a nightmare. It took me 3 days to remove. Here are some of the files to scan for :
    Cloud Guard
    EmieSiteList
    EmieUserList
    b5-Latn-Ba
    81DB78D
    User\AppData\Roaming\MaxCleaner
    tr-TR
    %AllUsersProfile%random.exe

    The main thing is to find a common date and time with these files so you can pinpoint when you downloaded it. Like 6/12/2015 at 10:30 pm

    So now you have to do a search in Windows 7 or 8 to find all the files. Here is the search: filemodified6/12/2015. And here is the agonizing part. You need to delete all these files. Some have been secretly modified. Some will only be deleted in Safe Mode. I used Unlocker for some stubborn files. It is wonderful and free and safe .. Go PC Computing Magazine. Also check to see if your DNS servers have been changed. If you see 31.168.224.100, these people have already taken over your computer. Change back quickly to your original DNS server.

    I hope this helps someone.
