These so-called "system optimizers" or "error cleaner", use intentional false positives (fake info re operating system, e.g., registry errors, disk junk, etc.) to convince YOU that your systems have (non-existing, misleading) problems. (Once installed) Then they (just) try to sell you their software, claiming it will remove these problems (only when you choose to give some money to 'em).
