Be sure you download the latest version from their official site, as an earlier version was recently infected with a sophisticated backdoor (which should be fixed now!).
Their official page: https://www.piriform.com/ccleaner

Just for good measure, I scanned it through myself with Virustotal, Malwarebytes and Bitdefender. It appears to be solved.
