I hope they do not exist in other programs. Except CCleaner.

In one standard software from MS the virus has got. Although the system was delivered from scratch. What's wrong with Windows 10?

Bundled with the update or on a program alone? Well this is a bummer. Scanning my PC now..

Good thing i didn't download it then and i never will.
Many of my friends who use it suggested it to me.
Bummer for them, though.
