How Things are going...

Despite it all Tech is back after a long hiatus.  With moving and work, life has been giving me quite the beat down.  So, yea its been mostly work eat sleep and repeat with some Madden 17 and 18 thrown in there.  I thought 18 would be better but it cheats worst than 17 especially in competitive mode.  Madden and its evil ways are for another blog or even podcast.  Maybe I can get the fellows of what Chill B has dubbed the Mut squad to talk about it. J Cizzly, T.O, Teflon Viper?

Anyway this ain't Tech Talk, this is Tech Tip Tuesday.  I once told you about a nifty bit of software called Ccleaner.  Well, seems good ol CCleaner was hacked and was installing malware on users PC's.  Don't panic, if you use the program you should have seen a pop up to update.  If not either uninstall or update the software.  Its that simple. 











Check your version:






Affected versions: CCleaner v5.33.6162 or CCleaner Cloud v1.07.3191 for 32-bit Windows PCs. The Android version for phones doesn't seem to be affected.  To be safe you can just hit check for updates at the bottom right of the program.
