CCleaner Browser
The company quietly released the CCleaner browser without making any public announcement. The browser is based on Chromium and is available for download on their site.
Piriform is owned by Avast and they already have an Avast Secure browser, instead of improving it, the company released a CCleaner Browser. We still don’t have any idea why the company decided to do so.
CCleaner Browser features
- It has in-built Cleaning tool with a name Privacy Cleaner
- It offers Anti-Phishing, Anti-tracking, and HTTPS Encryption
- Comes with an integrated Adblocker, Flash Blocker, Extension Guard, Privacy Cleaner, Password Manager, Stealth Mode, Webcam Guard, and video download
To find out the complete list of tools and feature od CCleaner browser, you can visit the Security & Privacy Center at the following address:

Apart from this, Google search is set to be the default Search engine out of the box. You can replace it with a search engine of your choice with ease.
If you’re already using the CCleaner app on your computer, then CCleaner browser will automatically detect the app and you can launch it right from the CCleaner browser Security & Privacy Center.

That’s all about CCleaner browser right now. What are your thoughts about Piriform web browser? We would like to hear from you.
Now that Piriform has been acquired by Avast I don’t know how safe, and secure, anty of the former Piriform software will be. Avast has a reputation of spying on your computer habits. Once Avast Anti-virus is loaded into your system it is very difficult to delete. It is only logical that Avast will be implimenting their Spyware in Ccleaner, Defraggler and Speecy. That is quite unfortunate for alot of people who have relied on Piriform’s great software to help clean and defrag their computers.
