why do these people always talk to you as though you're on the same plane
as them? If I came on and spoke that fast on how to install a bathroom
suite, he'd be lost in 20 seconds. Slow it down, show it properly in easy,
single steps
Nope, it is unnecessary software, which wants to be bought by people coming from Windows using similar maintenance software. No need for it on Mac OS X, and if you really want to do something the system does for you on a daily, weekly and monthly basis, you can always use Onyx, it is free and has a very good reputation.
+Simo HarjaneEven if CleanMyMac might be legit, it is not needed, and has proven in the past to do more damage than good when in the wrong hands.One does not need paid maintenance software or even free one, but if one wants to, there is always Onyx to relive those wonderful Windows cleaning the registry times.
It is a malaware. actually it fucks up the system then fixes it then doing it again then fixing it , gives you false report.. in aother word.. iy highjack your Mac so you can depend on them. A malaware always pops up in your mac... Mackeeper do that :)
While one should stay away from "maintenance" software like MacKeeper and CleanMyMac, MacKeeper is not a virus, since it does need to be downloaded and installed by the user and if it spreads, it has to be user doing so.https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3036

+PanderPandaIf one has to purposefully get a virus, then it is not a virus.Please point me to an article in some kind of encyclopedia, as not even Wikipedia has an entry for "trojan viruses", only "trojan horses".Maybe you are talking out of your arse?Because calling a piece of malware behaving differently than the two kinds of malware it borrows its name from is illogical from a scientific point of view, but then again, malware is not science to most, it is just a "worm trojan virus adware spyshit".And "adware spyware virus" is another one of those non-existent pieces of malware.Either it is adware, spyware or a virus. It is not all three.
+Respected Fella It's a virus that hides itself among your non infected files. Mainly in a download area. They hide and do certain things to your computer. An example of this is the Adware Spyware virus, which I had on my last computer 2 years ago. This is an information stealing virus which is among, the trojan viruses. Any virus which behaves in such a secretive way is dubbed, a trojan virus. Saying "The Trojan Virus" simply illustrates the many viruses in this category, and yes, trojan viruses can infect macs, but not very easily. There's a warning, and you have the option to press allow or block. The only way to get a virus on a mac is to PURPOSELY get one on it.
+PanderPandaThat is not the name of a virus, that is a combination of two words, each word describing one kind of malware.A trojan (horse) is a piece of malware capable of infecting a computer system without user interaction. It does not propagate from the infected system.A (computer) virus is a piece of malware capable of infecting a computer system without user interaction, and also capable of propagating to other computer systems outside the LAN, again without user interaction.A "trojan virus" would thus be a piece of malware capable of infecting a computer twice, but only being able to propagate once.In other words, it is not a clear description and not used by professionals to describe one piece of malware, even though some AV vendors use that term (trojan virus) to describe some pieces of malware, yet fail do describe what it actually is.But then again, they call their software "anti virus", which is not completely true, as it also, hopefully, protects agains other kinds of malware, thus it should be called "anti malware software", but for simplicity's sake and not to make the user more powerful with knowledge, they leave it at "anti virus".
