So if CheatEngine or CheatHappens does not fit any of this criteria, how exactly do you call it PUP?ĬheatEngine does not come bundled with software, it also has no ads to speak of, its also SIMPLE to uninstall.
CHEAT HAPPENS TRAINER CANNOT FIND GAME SOFTWARE
Other practices generally accepted as riskware, scareware, adware, greyware, or otherwise commonly unwanted software by the user community In general hurting or diminishing end user experience Predominantly negative feedback or ratings from the user community Using exaggerated findings (such as claiming temp files, cookies, registry entries, etc are harmful) as scare tactics to get users to purchaseĭifficulty uninstalling or removing the software Using fake installers for commonly used software (such as Adobe Flash Player) to push your product Unwarranted, unnecessary, excessive, illegitimate, or deceptive modifications of system settings, security settings or configuration (including browser settings and toolbars that bring no additional value over standard Operating System and legitimate application settings) Using pop-ups, pop-unders, ad-insertion, ad-overlays, ad replacementĮxcessive or deceptive distribution, affiliate or opt-out bundling practices which may or may not include SEO poisoning techniquesĪggressive or deceptive behavior especially surrounding purchasing or licensing, including using affiliates & third parties who use different tactics or techniques to get users to purchase, than what is available from the manufacturer's website Obtrusive, misleading, or deceptive advertising, branding, or search practicesĭoes not apply to CheatEngine or CheatHappens Be fair and give him that chance as you might see/guess that blocking the whole domain is in this case definitely a false report.įunny, the website you are not blocking although it contains the PUP you were talking about xD They even say it does. And you should give PWizard more information so he can take care of the problem and remove the "what ever you believe is dangerous" thing so everybody gets pleased. You should block a specific url if you believe its dangerous not a whole domain which is used by million of members for a long time with no harmful content. It would hurt your sales and put you together with bad guys for an overblocking reason.)
CHEAT HAPPENS TRAINER CANNOT FIND GAME .EXE
exe is known to be used by virus and trojans as well.
It would be as Microsoft would block all MalwareBytes software because it ends with. (I don't want to argue or start a discussion but this overblocking becomes ridiculous. However also all trainers created by CheatEngine will marked as that even if they don't contain the PUP at all. That is why the cheatengine software (which itself is open source) is marked with that.
Sorry for the confusion, but the block will remain in place for PUP.CheatEngine.Īpparently the CheatEngine installer comes with "Potential Unwanted Programs" alias adware. User may encounter small UI issues such as misspellings or alignment issues with the app. User experience may be degraded and the user may see unintended mistakes with the application.
