Do you know what IST Cleaner Pro is?
If you have noticed IST Cleaner Pro on your system, you should definitely make sure that it has not entered it bundled with other software because it might be very true that such a program will not work as promised. It is very true that it might even cause harm to the security of your system. Thus, even though you might think that it is a reliable system optimizer that can detect and fix all the issues, you should know that you still have to be very careful with it. If you notice that it acts somehow strangely or you have not downloaded it yourself, you should definitely delete IST Cleaner Pro with all of its components.
Even though the program acts to be extremely useful, it has been found out that the version, which comes in a bundle, tends to show fake scan results. It is being done in order to lure you into purchasing a full version of IST Cleaner Pro. However, we definitely not recommend doing that because this program is classified as a potentially unwanted application and there are more reliable programs for a similar price available. Do you want to avoid undesirable software in the future? It is important to keep an antimalware tool enabled 24/7 and download software from reliable sources only.

Unfortunately, not all of them are reliable, which is why you should remove them if you ever notice their presence on your system. It is also possible to avoid unfamiliar applications in the future, but you should always select Custom installation and complete the installation wizard extremely carefully.
