A Mackeeper 2012 screen appeared when I was quitting out of Safari,
and I initially went ahead and installed it.
Having second thoughts, I sent it to the trash bin, because I need to know
if it is an authentic Apple-generated security product. Is it?
Thank you!
iMac, Mac OS X (10.7.3)

It is NOT and Apple product. There have been numerous reports on here of issues with a previous version of MacKeeper. I have only spotted one other post referring to MacKeeper 2012. However, it does seem like their very aggressive marketing techniques are still in place.

I trashed Mackeeper 2012, but before I got rid of it, it said my iMac had 132 security issues.
Guess I will call tech support about that!

Which, of course, is how a company with their reputation would con you into downloading their product. You will NOT have 132 security issues.

Hi,
New to Apple. Got a pop up from Mackeeper, pressed the download button, then felt I should check on the Apple web site! When I returned to the download it asked me to install, which I didn't and sent it to the bin. Do I need to do anything else to get rid of this programme? I have not had any more pop ups and no further stuff fronm mackeeper.
Many thanks
Best regards
Is Mackeeper 2012 an authentic Apple product?
