As soon as Revo Uninstaller finally loaded, it was immediately clear that despite updated McAfee protection, the laptop, ancient by the modern standards of a disposable economy, was riddled with adware and spyware. I appreciate the four levels of in-depth removal, and the way the app scours registry and hard drive files well after completing the unwanted app’s built-in uninstaller. Manually deleting those offending icons from the screen, however, wouldn’t have done a darn thing to the files in the driver’s seat, least of all facilitated the kinds of connections I’m seeing now. Some of these leftover apps I see in Revo are in obvious need of burning out, like the MBKWbar Toolbar; for everything else, a little Web search helps determine my allegiance while Revo Uninstaller does its worst with the parasite at hand. I’ll soon be able to restart the computer to complete some of the leftover file deletion (that’s normal,) then set the trusty laptop to defrag overnight. More Spyware News
