Apr 3, 2016 1:47 AM in response to pratikpendhareby seventy one,It is very unwise to publish personal email details in a public forum. Especially in connection with such a rogue download as MacKeeper. I've asked the hosts to remove it,
If you want it, Google it, but don't ask here; it is unwelcome.

You don't need anything to "boost" anything on your Mac. You don't need boosters, cleaners, optimizers, refreshers, or organizers. All these so-called "maintenance" applications are nothing but scamware that damage your hard drive. You don't need anti-virus software on your computer, either. There are no viruses for OS X at this time, and therefore those kinds of programs are unnecessary. Many of them negatively impact the performance of your system.
