Q: Does anyone use/recommend MacKeeper?

I am just curious if anyone uses this program, I have never used anything in the past, however I see this come up as a pop up on a regular basis so I'm just curious if it's good, or just garbage?

MacBook Pro, OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.3)

No. MacKeeper is a scam. It does nothing useful on the Mac. All it does is use the resources of your Mac to cause problem. They use one of the most obnoxious advertising program that lies like a carpet.

Whatever you do don't install it.

To install Mackeeper in your MBP is analogous to infecting a person with Ebola. Do not do it. P{lease read this:
