MacKeeper is horrible malware that causes a "virus warning" to pop up in your browser that freezes the functionality of your computer until you force quit the browser several times. I'm STILL trying to get rid of it! You are misrepresenting your product and I can't imagine what you are gaining from hijacking peoples computers like this other than an evil twisted chuckle. Why don't you show some good will towards the "legitimacy" of your product and tell us how to stop this annoying malicious virus addware that all of sudden started popping up AFTER we did the free (except for the major headache of this software) download? I have deleted it from my system (which was a headache as well) and now I'm getting this popup which I NEVER got before this bogus mackeeper program.
Does one not need to have something to keep one's Mac clean and healthy or is it simply not required?
I would say to use the tools included on your mac.
But if you need a 3rd party i would say use CleanMyMac as that is not a scam
Mackeeper is a scam delete it if you have installed it
Check the date. You're replying to a topic that is six years old. 🙂
Yes. That is just as true now as it was six years ago. It is still a just as worthless of a scam now as it was then.
I've had issues in the past when using the clean junk feature, removed something important and I had to do a system restore :/ stopped using it about 5 years ago
No mackeeper has adware
No no no and no Mac safe keeper will only give you Popups ect if you downloaded it dont open it just delete it i got it my accident and i deleted it and i didnt get pop ups if you didnt open it
