    Softpedia Editor's Review for The Cleaner 2012

    Protect, prevent and recover your system from malware

    Written by Bogdan Popa on November 11th, 2011

    The Cleaner is, just like its name suggests, a software solution designed to clean your computer of malicious files, be them spyware, adware, Trojan horses or other types of dangerous content.

    Just as expected, the ace up its sleeve is the scanning process that’s able to detect basically every single malicious file on your computer, but the most important thing is that it comes with two scanning modes, each for every type of user out there.

    Smart scan was specifically designed to address users who wish to clean their computers on the fly, so the application will only look in those locations known as being friendly with malicious files.

    Full scan on the other hand scans the whole system and although it takes much longer to complete, it’s still the best way to make sure that nothing’s wrong with your machine.

    The Cleaner is quite user friendly because there are only a bunch of options in there, so beginners won’t have any problems with it, no matter if we’re thinking about the scanning process per se or about the configuration procedure.

    The updating function works all by itself and makes sure that The Cleaner has the latest definitions to block malware quick and easy.

    All things considered, The Cleaner remains a good choice when trying to get rid of infected files, and the fact that it can be bought for a bargain prices makes it a top pick.
