Mac Ads Cleaner's developers generate revenue by scamming gullible users - they scare and trick them into purchasing the full version that is useless. The entire list of errors is false - your computer is probably optimized and completely virus-free. Be aware, however, that this application is fake and part of a scam. Therefore, users are encouraged to purchase the 'full' version. After running a system scan, users are presented with hundreds of potential threats/issues that must be removed, however, the free version of Mac Ads Cleaner is apparently not capable of doing this. Mac Ads Cleaner claims to provide a number of features that remove viruses and optimize the system by cleaning junk files. Be aware that this program typically infiltrates systems without permission and gives no real value for regular users. Research shows that it is related to another rogue application called Advanced Mac Cleaner. On initial inspection, Mac Ads Cleaner may seem legitimate and useful, however, it is categorized as a potentially unwanted program (PUP).

Mac Ads Cleaner is a fake system optimization tool identical to Mac Adware Cleaner.
