Re: PUP.Legacy.Optional - 3 Threats Identified

Glad you could solve the issue. And yeah, Malwarebytes is amazing, but I have found myself using ADWCleaner as well, there are something things one software doesn't clean as good as other, which is why it is always recommended to do multiple scans with multiple anti-malware solutions, just to be 100% sure.

Re: PUP.Legacy.Optional - 3 Threats Identified

Looks like safe with nw did the trick. Same two elements were identified, but this time the removal process included a step "cleaning chrome", which definitely wasn't in any of the other scans. When I restarted in regular mode and ran another scan with v7, there were "no unwanted objects found". Super psyched!!

Below are two log files -- first is the one generated after removal of two unwanted...

Please try in safe mode, and share the scan and/or clean logfile :)

Thanks!

Re: PUP.Legacy.Optional - 3 Threats Identified

Ran v7. This time only found two elements -- same file "PUP.LEGACY.OPTIONAL". Computer restarted after I clicked clean/remove option. When I ran scan again, same two objects were found. If you can think of any options, please advise. If think running scans in safe mode w/networking is best option, I'll give that a shot.

Thanks again for all the help.
