Big thanks to daljeet and other posters.
Last night I got a notice from MBAM about a ccleaner.exe containing a "trojan" WTF? Updated it and notification went away
What wasn't clear is that only the 32-bit version was compromised
AND the compromise results in the creation of Windows registry key HKLM\SOFTWARE\Piriform\Agomo
Apparently I lucked out since I run the 64-bit Pro version... but I wonder...?
