Unwanted Software

Hi BGBG! My advise would be to visit CHF malware section and let Kenny check you out for malware. IMHO this isn't bloatware causing your issues. I can help you with Macrium Reflect. but you need a clean PC. It sounds to me that you are infected with malware!

 

Doesn't sound like Malware, just overly aggressive bloatware and pups. If you don't want to use the program uninstallers, just Google every questionable program listed and you can then decide whether you need it or not.

 

Hi BGBG! CCleaner was mentioned in a post by @Kenny94 (post numer12) If you have CCleaner you can click on tools. You will see "save to text file" in the right hand corner. Save that to your desktop and post the file in your next reply. This will show all your programs, To me PUP's are malware!
I'm attaching mine so you can see what the file looks like. This will list all your programs!

 

I agree. Your safe bet is performing the above and just take your time and use the program Uninstallers as Rich mention.

 

I have replied with my thoughts. This is a quote taken from BGBG's post. This is the reason I thought a visit to the malware section might be in order. I'm done! The quote below does not sound good to me???
"Cant even go to websites anymore without a huge box blocking the window and have to wait several minutes or more for some ad screen to load before I can even close it".

 

I see what you mean and I read that but I took that to mean popups coming from third party applications trying to install, not necessarily Malware.

 

I have no idea what's going on with BGBG's PC. I don't know that its malware. If we could get a screen shot from BGBG, that sure could help clear this issue up and we could all stop this guessing game. Lets see a screen shot of this bloatware blocking the websites. Popups or what ever. Third party Apps! What ever?? My thinking is no harm letting Kenny look at this.
This is my last reply to this thread!

 

Sure I agree and BG if you think thisd is Malware by all means go to the Malware Forum, that is what it is there for.

 

I lied! I have to reply to this thread one more time. I'm not a malware fighter, but I read all I can about them.
I can not read a FRST log, but I'm sure Kenny can. If you follow the things to do in CHF malware section, you can at least be sure your are malware free. Then maybe we can help you with your other issues. To me the things you are describing are not normal.
Can you attach a screen shot BG??It would IMHO really help!

 

At this point why don't we stop posting here and wait for BG to come back in and answer some of the questions posed, because we have really beat the possibilities to death now!
