My computer nightmare is over

Trying to sort out my computer problems over the past several days has been a crazy time. The company I used, will not be mentioned ... but one thing I learned during this exhausting process, is that there is a web site .. FREE ... that gets rid of adware, an adware removal tool, on any site that you would visit for example, Huffington Post. No more stuff to clog up my intertubes! Like I say it is free, they do, however, accept donations. It works great so far for me. Just passing this on (no,this is not a commercial) .... techsupportall.com ... advancedsystemcare 8.1.

Seems like a lot of work, or maybe just another post by a DU'er venting...

Do you think I am spamming? I hope not. OK, I am not as sophisticated as the rest of you, but I am only passing on something that I just learned. The second biggest thing that I have learned on the computer is how to use spell check .... so there!

Please remember to never disable any of your start-up programs currently enabled-

Also, your kitchen window is slightly cracked open.

Thanks again!

I use the free version of both. Recommended by the guy who sold me my pc.

Malwarebytes is anti-malware, and AVG is for viruses.

and really makes a huge difference in your surfing pleasure.

Advanced System Care is awesome, I've installed it on all my devices for years, and AVG Free is incredible as well as a first line of defense. I do find that the first line of defense is Adblock though.
