    Panda Cloud A/V is blocking/neutralizing the latest setup attempt as a virus identified as W32/Exploit.gen. In any event, it won't install. First CCleaner version update that Panda has reported/blocked this.

    Will note however that the regular setup file was csc406 and that is what Panda flagged.

    It was csc406.exe. I tried it twice from here at MG and once from filehippo. I abandoned the issue by unloading Panda for now and moved to Avast, then back to MG for the latest CCleaner. Also, Windows had thrown up a dialog saying something about the setup file path wasn't right or there weren't sufficient permissions for the setup.
