Glad you got it sorted, and had helpful members to guide you. I don't think you suck at computers as you managed a task that takes some skills. May I suggest you update your system specs:

Very helpful to us for providing help. The Intel monitoring is being installed by OEM's these days as mentioned. Yet another bloatware for people to be aware of. A legit install is not a threat, but both those file names are being used to serve malware when found in the wrong location. Again, Welcome to Seven Forums. You just had "The Seven Forums Experience"
