No, it's not advertising. I just released some software that helps users get the programs they need to clean their computers.

Tarun is the security expert around these parts

As soon as I saw the thread title, I thought "cue endless posts asking, "is this safe to download?"

Nice one, Tarun.

I'll recommend it to some friends, I already have most of those programs I'm not sure about having a link in your 'guild' thingy is allowed though, that does look a bit like advertising.

It's not advertising for profit, it's advertising for awareness. This is a good thing.

Uhh I kind of don't get it... Lunar Downloader is a program that downloads OTHER (freeware?) programs to keep your computer secure?

Is there a list of the software it downloads? And I take it that these programs don't interfere with eachother?

Basically, it keeps people from having to waste time searching the Internet for programs to clean their computers.

The best place to review the list is from the program, as the programs listed are updated frequently.
None of the programs interfere with each other.

Sorry but that has nothing to do with this program. Please stay on topic.

Age; LunarDownloader is NOT a download accelerator - it downloads a whole host of anti-malware programs from their official sources. That is all, and it's a very good suite of detection and protection software.

It will get rid of virtually everything. However, ANY decent AV should prevent trojans at least; removal can be more tricky - it depends on the trojan.
