Primitive Garbage makes me extremely angry!

I would ask the creators of this archaic computer system I'm stuck with to get with the 20th century, if I thought I could be that optimistic. It couldn't be a more annoying, frustrating waste of time unless they tried even harder than they are to make it so. To the people at Microsoft, Windows, and everyone else who has a hand in making this backwards abomination, then doesn't help me with it: THANKS! I hope I can return the favor someday.

Are you talking about bloatware that comes with computers that are not custom built or something else?

Larry, is this some kind of cryptic post? What is the purpose of it?

Please explain for one what exactly you are talking about.

Paul.

On April 9, I inadvertently downloaded a virus called "sweetIM" aka "start.sweetpacks.com", a browser hijacker. After a week of trying to minimize the effects of this trash, I have Google and Internet Explorer back, but I'm obviously running something in the background I can't see, because loading becomes slower and slower, and eventually whatever I am trying to run becomes unresponsive. Three different companies ran an online scan, followed by asking me for money to "fix" my problem. Windows helps these scammers by not providing simple information. I think they are in cahoots, or have their own similar scams they don't want to expose.
Could there be an instant fix for my problems? Of course not, electrons don't travel as fast through wires as photons do in a vacuum.

Looking at your other threads it looks like you have or had Malware problems.
It also looks like you don't use safe surfing and PC usage habits.
When people here try to help you, you need to reply with your results and/or questions.
You are the one sitting in front of your PC.
Maybe the problem is sitting in front of the keyboard.

Have you tried running some scans from software you can download yourself such as Malwarebytes? - Malwarebytes : Free anti-malware download

Exactly.

A bit strange logics, making it Microsoft's or Windows' fault when a self inflected malware infection causes issues.

Primitive! Where's the info I need so I don't have to ask anyone? It's hidden.

Wow, thanks Dude
If too much information is better than not enough, I'm in business. I'll be an expert in a matter of weeks.
They sure don't make it easy.
