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.

Re: PUP.Legacy.Optional - 3 Threats Identified

Could be that you are a victim of bundleware. Basically, alongside normal maybe even useful software, some providers bundle malicious or useless software just to increase downloads and such. Have you downloading anything from 3rd party providers and not official sources?. Regardless of the fact, Malwarebytes or ADWCleaner should have picked it up and removed it, it could be much more thorough. ...

Re: ADWCleaner & Teamviewer

Never had issues that ADWCleaner would remove my TeamViewer. You sure it was that software? Maybe it was a fluke or a trojan pretending to be TeamViewer. You could try installing TV, doing a scan with anti-virus software, ADWCleaner and maybe some form of anti-malware on top of that, to confirm or deny your thoughts.

Re: After install Torch browser from the official page adwcleaner detects malware 18

Glad you solved the issue. Torch browser, unfortunately, is malware. It is what you would call Bundleware or PUP (Potentially unwanted program), usually bundled with other more used software as part to generate more file downloads and installs. In the future always select advanced or expert options when installing, usually, they are hidden after that one checkmark. Additionally, you can do regu...

Re: After install Torch browser from the official page adwcleaner detects malware 18

Torch browser very often came along with bundles and without user's agreement. If you install it by yourself simple remove check-marks from appropriate elements.Torch browser very often came along with bundles and without user's agreement.
