  1. Adware.Agent malware threat I have the Advanced System Care Free version. I tried to send this through the tech support venue. It says that I can send it, but only paid versions will get a support response; however, when I clicked on the Free version in the drop-down list box, it immediately overlayed the entire page with a dark screen and would accept no further entries! All of the paid entries accepted entries, but none of the free version accepted entries, contrary to the previous page. So I will try to notify the user community piecemeal here. There is a nasty malware that the ASC "Quick Malware Removal" tool does not detect. I have the most current version, 5.4.0.257. The malware is named "Adware.Agent". I caught this by running the free version of Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware. It was in the lower operating system! This malware is very active and slows your system down drastically, running mine to less than half speed. It even made my Quicken run at half speed. This makes me very nervous as to how much snooping it is doing. Until IOBit can get the anti-malware for this threat, it might behoove you to run Malwarebytes. (No, I don't work for Malwarebytes. I am a normal everyday user.)
