You guys were wise not to update your versions of Disk Defrag. I liked the program, and all my problems with it began with a version update. Out of interest, I went to Auslogics website, and looked at the version history of Disk Defrag. Of note were:. Wow- no 3rd party offers in an optimized installer!
Could Auslogics have changed its ways? I had to investigate. So against my better judgement, I downloaded and ran the most recent version of Disk Defrag, using a "Custom Install". Results: The installer will set Yahoo as your home page and default search engine, and also install " BoostSpeed " a registry and disk "cleaner" , unless you use the custom install, and uncheck these default options. Despite unchecking these options, it still tried to change my homepage to Yahoo caught by WinPatrol , which I rejected.
Despite rejecting Yahoo twice, WinPatrol kept throwing up alerts. After installation completed, I was re-directed to giveaway-club dot- com, which promoted Auslogics free "BoostSpeed".
When I opened IE 11, my homepage was unchanged, but I got an alert that an unkown program was still trying to change it to Yahoo, which I yet again rejected. I ran Disk Defrag, which ran without problems. But I was informed that over 2, problems with my computer had been detected, most of them registry errors, plus junk files wasting 94 MB of disk space that - you guessed it - BoostSpeed could fix.
Talk about scareware! In short, this PUPpy hasn't changed one bit. It ignored my explicit instructions, and installed what it dangwell pleased. If not for WinPatrol and MBAM real-time protection, my home page, my search engine would have changed, and I'd probably have a worthless registry cleaner installed.
Malwarebytes was right to tag Auslogics as a PUP. I just wish I still had the installer for a version of Disk Defrag from before the time Auslogics crossed to the dark side. I downloaded Disk Defrag 4. It installed cleanly, and didn't mess with my browser. Nothing was added to my startup list, or to my services. No ads for wretched registry cleaners. I had to toggle off the setting to notify me of updates.
And if I ignore the "System Health" tab, I won't have to see all those registry entries and junk files that are not in need of "cleaning". Registry Keys: 1 PUP. Browse Community. Turn on suggestions.
