#Why is avast blocking dr cleaner for my mac update
I also regard it as underhand/sneaky that this was included in the update but there is no mention of it whatsoever in the release notes.Īdding undocumented 'features' is typical of adware/junkware - this seems to be the direction CCleaner is heading since Avast acquired it. Quite simple - Don't send us these unwanted sales messages at all, as you say we are not interested in them, no cookies needed then. I'm not having a go at you personally Stephen, but: You can manage this in the 'Cookies to Keep' list of the Options > Cookies menu. For this reason these cookies have been whitelisted by default. Just be aware that if you clean these cookies you will see certain messages with much greater frequency than if the cookie was there. We will be using the dynamic messaging system extensively in future releases to help us run tests for the UI. The cookies mark when someone has seen one of the variants and helps us understand which Product Tip explanation is most effective at guiding users to this feature. For example, we have 4 different Product Tips that are designed to help users to explore the Browser Extensions Manager. This helps us to avoid sending you sales messages over and over again, and it also allows us to run A/B tests that help us to understand which messages are more effective. When you see one of these messages, a cookie is left behind. We use a system from our parent company, Avast, to deliver dynamic content, such as the 'CCleaner Pro upgrade' message and the CCleaner Product Tips.
TL DR - we use it to avoid inundating you with messages you're not interested in and to improve the product experience. What information are you sending to AVAST now?
Especially "ipm-provider.ff." is re-added everytime something is cleaned.
After installation various new cookies for AVAST were added.
