    In a nutshell, definitely ignore it.

    Downloading maintenance software from this type of ad is often the best way to REFILL you PC with rubbish, even IF it cleans things up a little! Using software from "free maintenance software" offers like these often cause more spamware and headaches on your PC than they fix.

    Expect unwanted accessory programs, extra desktop icons links and changes to your browser and search bar default pages. You can usually expect an added tool bar as standard as well.

    Why? Because the companies producing the "free" software to "fix" your machine with get paid for each and every extra link, toolbar or default page change they can make on your machine! Welcome to the internet economy.
