PC Cleaner Pro 2012
PC Cleaner Pro 2012 is a system optimization and file cleanup application that detects nonexistent junk files, malicious software and other system problems on your PC. Since PC Cleaner Pro 2012 doesn't have any of its marketed features and can only provide you with deceptive information about your computer, we recommend that you treat PC Cleaner Pro 2012 as a low-level threat and remove PC Cleaner Pro 2012 with your preference in anti-malware scanners.
