optimizer 2010 for FSX (and FS9/X-Plane as well....)

I've seen this file for D/L at Simviation and Flightsim.

Does anyone know anything about it?

I would steer well clear based on some of the stuff I have read in other forums. It requires an e-mail addy in order to get an activation serial number...and nobody has got their number yet

Yep, downloaded, ran asked for e-mail for activation,did not get number but did notice
WUAUCLDT.EXE and syncman running on my computer, Googling these showed them to be Malware/ virus.
Have since removed and PC is fine. My advice is to KEEP CLEAR:salute:

Thanks for the heads-up. Zip file deleted.

Thanks for the info.

Has anyone notified Flightsim and Simviation this is malware?

WUAUCLDT.EXE is part of the Windows update setup.

Actually, wuauclt.exe is part of the Windows Update system, whereas wuaucldt.exe is, as noted, a piece of malware,

rohan, yes you are right, a slip of my reading and copy paste from that post rather than type it out again, just mentioned it in case people dive into the windows folder and deletes the wuauclt.exe file in haste.

I ran Norton and Malwarebytes and have no infected files so here's hoping I'm clean. I aborted the set-up when it was 1) taking forever and 2) saw it was updating netframework 4.0

I don't trust this add-on and as you guys suggested I am steering clear of it.
