Uniblue's 'SpeedUpMyPC' recently released a new version that renamed it's executable. The newest version is labeled "SpeeedUpMyPC 2014 (6.0.1.1)".

Spybot's latest System Scan flags the new software as:

Product: Fraud.SpeedUpMyPC
Category: Malware-C
Type: File
Rule ID: A9A24FAF
Estimated Danger: Very

It also flagged the new directory that SpeedUpMyPC created and a couple of related Registry files.

I am running Spybot-Search & Destroy + AV, Version 2.2.21.0. It was last updated just before the System Scan was run (2/16/14 11:15am CDT).

My OS is Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium.


Attached is the log file from this System Scan.

This program doesn't show false threats and suggests to improve the speed of your PC. If it really does that - this is another question. Anyway, there is free software which is probably more effective, this much is true.
