I don't know it seems like a pretty neat idea overall
I mean you're a chump if you buy it but I mean whoever came up with the idea of taking an IT guy's thumbdrive and then putting a logo on it and selling it

I saw this yesterday, but the commercial had a little more to it. So here's the official video, with its amazing 240p :v:

And cursors.
Every respectable PC needs a gun cursor.
They disabled embeds, ratings and comments
The box looks like it is some cleaning soap for the toilet

If your cursor isn't the flaming death sword you should just throw your PC in the bin tbh
Don't forget to also go into control panel and give your cursor a massive tail

"Treat yourself to trips to Necker Island or a local spa or massage. Whatever is fun."[/quote]
my dad never uses a computer and knows almost nothing about them and even he burst out laughing at this commercial when it came on
It's like a Cinco product.
totally not malaware at all! Nope!

its sad that they're exactly spot on with this crap

Cool, it's available for Linux, too.[/QUOTE]
They even use the freedesktop "complete" ding, twice, during the commercial. Both times fooled me thinking my desktop was trying to tell me something completed...
[QUOTE=Killuah;46867944]0:55 I can spot Alcohol 120% and Wow, what else?[/QUOTE]
What I can make out from that particular segment:
Alcohol 120%
World of Warcraft
Mozilla Firefox
Neverwinter Nights 2
Ventrilo
what I think is an iTunes installer
A few Excel documents
A few random folders
A custom shortcut for Starcraft
Samsung Scan Assistant
EA Download Manager
The Sims 3
a custom shortcut for The Sims 3.
And for more technical goodness...
My guess is that that they filmed some person's PC but couldn't capture the whole screen for whatever reason, so they did multiple takes filming various parts of the screen for footage.
At 0:43, we see a few things the commercial does not even begin to mention. First, the cleaned objects count sits at 4,492 total, and the disk space at 1,254.22 MB, probably filmed or captured at the start of the footage-gathering. It's also worth noting that a subscription service is not active, nor is it mentioned in the video.
In a brief shot at 0:44, we see that the computer's filming day was June 20, 2014, at what I believe reads 1:59 PM. In the shot immediately after that, it's jumped to 2:08 PM. This makes me believe that they could only focus on one part of the screen at a time, and didn't care what part of the screen it was. I'd like to know how the hell they neglected catching the 2,000-some items in a scan, it'd have made their product look really, really good. Either that or it wasn't actually cleaning up those 221-some registry errors it was finding every time.
At 0:35, you can just about make out a message that reads "Security has found critical process activity on your system and will now perform fast scan of system files". This is presented as drive-by malware given that the message box has 'The page at (unreadable) says' as it's header. Ultimately this hacking leads to a driver corruption of some sort due to the error code (0x000000D1).
Since I'm nitpicking this apart anyway... At 0:56, the fake download window notes a 50 mbps connection speed. I'm not good with data maths, but I'd suspect that at 50 mbps, that 50-ish megabyte file would take around 10 seconds to fully download. Since it's done in 2-3 seconds, the actual speed is somewhere in the 150-200 mbps range.
[U][B]EDIT[/B][/U]:
I got curious and added 225 to the initial count of 4,492 several times over.
On the 8th time I had reached [B]6,292[/B], and on the 9th time I had reached [B]6,517[/B].
Therefore, the scans were carried out 9 times in the span of around 10 minutes.
If only they'd forced the time & date to a fixed value so it wouldn't be inconsistent between shots.
Additionally, the file size count also went up by the correct amount every single time. They may have loaded the same broken files several times, and how convenient that Win Cleaner removes the task bar and desktop!
I can't wait for everybody in my town to buy this thing and wonder why their computers are running like shit. It will give me more business.
