This latest sample has been submitted for analysis and possible verdict change.  Given that this PC cleaning software is classified as a PUP it is likely the verdict will be changed to grayware.  Also, given that this particular forum thread has already been marked as "solved", please start a new thread when reporting future false positives or verdict change requests.

Thank you.
