I wonder if I deleted the McAfee it would work?  I just deleted it.  I'll try Malwarebytes again. It's the one I'm most fond of

Which download are you talking about, Mug?  The Microsoft one?  I couldn't even get that one to start downloading.  I deleted the McAfee, rebooted and tried Malwarebytes again.  Still no joy.

Can you open this link???  http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-8/how-find-remove-virus#1TC=t1

It goes into how to use the anti-virus / anti-malware software that comes standard with Windows 8.

It says that it has been turned off and is not monitoring my computer and that I should turn off any app that may be monitoring her.  To my knowledge I have no other application doing this.  Once again, no joy

Did you uninstall all the McAfee parts....there are (3)

[LizStreithorst]

I did as far as I can figure.  I right clicked on the program and clicked uninstall.  When I look for it now it is no longer there.

I've gotten to the point where I don't give a f....the computer still works.  If and when it quits working I'll haul it into a fix it shop.  I have a laptop that I despise that I can use until it's fixed.

did you do a restart afterwards ?....I'm sure you did tho, right?....

[LizStreithorst]

I did.  I could always do a bigger reboot by un plugging it or turning the switch to off.  I just did it by pushing the button on the computer.

Are you logged on as your 'putors' admin ??

[LizStreithorst]

All I know is that when I reboot she asks me for my password and when I type it in she welcomes me and opens up.  does that mean that I'm her admin?

Damn, I wish I could find a good fight.  I can't remember wanting to fight this much since I left The Bad Man.  If I were to find a fight that was already ongoing I'd jump right in and either whup ass or get mine whupped.  It wouldn't matter which.  It's all about the release of built up frustration
