Download SUPERANTISPYWARE (Make sure you click 'DOWNLOAD LATEST VERSION')
http://www.filehippo.com/download_superantispyware/
UPDATE and PERFORM COMPLETE SCAN:idea:0 -
s'alright Rik...I'm learning this as I'm going along (most things are obvious) I didn't think to mention removing the normal junk just yet..just get rid of the bad..though I suppose doing both at the same time makes more sense.
If I had my way (back to when I rule the world) they'd be removing avg, apple stuff, belkin service, creative service (I'd have to scroll up to see more...but you get the idea)
