  1. I think this site is useful for an desktop user however i think to improve you should attach a link where one might be able to find the proper software to remove such adware and spyware. not a program (spyhunter) that just detects it. If they are on this site they already are aware its there. I have multiple antivirus and antimalware programs and i run a scan every night and i never knew it was on my desktop until i went in to control panel and checked my programs list and didnt recognize it. Anywaysthis is good info, no doubt, thank you!!

  2. I have removed pursue point from my programs yet i still get the ads with almost every site i visit. As you probably know it is extremely frustrating, please help. I also have Norton and since i have had problems with pursue point Norton has me remove a virus called Yontoo.C pretty much every time i access my browser.
