Q: Is Clean My Mac 2 helpful for speeding up at Macbook Pro?

I've read some reviews of MacKeeper and Clean My Mac products, but am not sure if they are unbiased. Can someone set me straight?

MacBook Pro, OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.3)

    Well, it's nice to see that someone is policing a year-and-a-half year old thread.  I'll sleep better tonight knowing that there are diligent people like you keeping everyone on topic.

    No, you lifted it from it's grave to the top of the Forums for all to see again. It is a good reminder for others though, to Stay On Topic.

     

    Cheers

    DO NOT BUY OR ALLOW THIS PRODUCT TO HARM YOUR PC

     

    I took on the trial and whilst they had access to my PC (not sure how) I had loads of pops hitting my pc not to mention the emails they kept sending me. On top of this there were internet license issues and warning not allowing me to access google!!!

     

    Apple do a great job of building fantastic systems, protected by firewalls etc etc, this application is a rip off, causes numerous problems on your pc.

     

    I suggest to make an appointment at the Apple store and let the genius guys talk you through how better to use your storage and what solutions & apps are available that don't damage your PC.

     

    Since I deleted the app and removed it from my trash and un-subscribed to emails, my Mac Book Air works great ( just lost lots of excel documents which Apple are helping me to find)

     

    BE CAREFUL.

     

    Hope this helps

    OK.  Thanks.  I've just had CleanMyMac2 delete itself - "and all related files" - wierd!

     

    Now what about MalWareBytes?

     

    Thanks

    Malwarebytes is good enough for removing malware and adware
