[QUOTE="goodjohnjr, post: 860000, member: 73546"] I would currently recommend Malwarebytes Free, Malwarebytes Adwcleaner, and maybe Norton Power Eraser. If HitmanPro had free detection and removal permanently instead of losing removal after 30-days then I would be using that too, but until then I have been using the previously mentioned programs (I may be getting rid of Norton Power Eraser soon though after it performed much worse than the other two at detecting some PUPs (Potentially Unwanted Software) from my brother's computer a week ago). I am currently testing Bitdefender Free as my primary layer of protection, the previous three programs as my back-up scanners, Windows Defender set to Periodic Scanning as my back-up back-up scanner along with all the default Windows 10 security options/layers (Windows Firewall, Smart Screen, et cetera) enabled, Adguard DNS on the router, Ublock Origin, and Bitdefender Trafficlight. -John Jr [/QUOTE]
