MPC Cleaner is another PUP (potentially unwanted program) we add to our list of unreliable software. This program is introduced by DotCash Limited, and our researchers have found that it can perform in a misleading and malicious way. Mpc.am – which is the official download page – introduces MPC Cleaner as the “The World Fastest & Lightest PC Cleaner,” but we know that it is not trustworthy. This supposedly reliable system optimizer cannot do more than delete junk files and empty registries, which does not have a big effect on your system’s performance. So, why was this program created? We know the answer to this question, and we can help you remove MPC Cleaner, and, right now, you need to continue reading.
Although MPC Cleaner does work as a registry cleaner/optimizer to some extent, it is not a beneficial program. Other similar programs usually solicit a fee for the supposedly beneficial services, but MPC Cleaner does not require any payments. The purpose of this PUP is different, but it is not any less strange. It was found that this program can download other applications that most definitely require removal. Our research has revealed that once installed, MPC Cleaner can download other unreliable programs created by the same company, including MPC AdCleaner; however, it is possible that software created by third parties will be introduced as well. In either case, you MUST remove the software installed without your permission, even if it looks harmless. If you do not delete unfamiliar software on your PC, the number of security issues you are likely to encounter is uncountable.
The fact that MPC Cleaner can download software without your notice or consent is truly disturbing, but that is not all that you need to know. We have also found that this potentially unwanted program collects information about you. The Privacy Policy at hmpc.am/protocol#license suggests that your name, ID card number, phone number, IP address, and email address could be collected, and you do not want that. Do you think you can trust parties capable of infecting your PC illegally to collect this kind of information? We are sure that you do not, and this is a great motive to delete MPC Cleaner right away. Note that if this PUP was installed on your PC at any point, you have to beware of scams based on your private information.
The removal of MPC Cleaner is a true nuisance because you might have to confirm your decision again and again. Our researchers have found that when users click the Uninstall button, they are introduced to various messages asking whether or not they want to proceed. Hopefully, you will be able to get past this hurdle and delete MPC Cleaner successfully. If this fails, you should install a malware remover, such as SpyHunter, that will destroy this threat automatically. This kind of tool can also eliminate the malicious threats installed by MPC Cleaner or along with it. Do you know what the best part is? This software can block all other threats that might attack in the future.
