Comodo

I've noticed that MG does not offer downloads of some Comodo products. Does this mean you consider them 'undesirable' downloads?

 

They all seem to be offered; any one in particular you have in mind? All Comodo products are safe as far as I know.

 

It was either Comodo Dragon or Comodo System Cleaner. I have both, but one was downloaded from the Comodo site. I find the CSC complements CCleaner well.

 

Regardless of whether it's downloaded from MG or the author's site, it's the same program. One note of interest, I did try Comodo's system cleaner some time ago. It's much more aggressive the CCleaner and managed to break a graphics program I use frequently and needed a reinstallation. Too much "cleaning" can be a bad thing, actually the minimal amount of cleaning done during a run hardly has any effect on the efficiency of a computer. Not as bad as registry cleaners and memory managers, which in my opinion are absolutely pointless.

 

I agree and stay away from registry cleaners. Unfortunately, CCleaner doesn't remove personal information. Other than that, it's an excellent program.

 

What type of "personal information" are you looking to remove? CCleaner has numerous settings to remove things like saved passwords, auto-complete forms, etc. Also, most browsers have the same options to remove those items.

 

You're probably right. But after I run CCleaner, Comodo finds additional items in Privacy.

 

Not all cleaners are written the same way to look for the same things in the same manner. Chances are if you ran ten different cleaners, one right after the other, each one would find something. Same with registry cleaners. Frankly, I'd pick just one and make sure it's set to optimum performance.
