Hi Jacee,
I can't find the Acresso File or any PDF reader. I looked in Program files, I did a windows search -- even searching issetup.dll and it doesn't find such a file except for within the scan document.

Questions:
--How do I get rid of Acresso files?
-- what about the other files detected by the scan? What about Systweak? And should I get rid of Googleupdatesetup (why is there such a file anyway?)?
--NOTE: the PalTalk Messenger is a wanted program.

Thanks Again!!
Laurie

PS Since my original question was about how to run HerdProtect should I mark it solved and start a new thread?

Hi Jacee,
I've read a bunch from the link below but I don't understand a lot of it. I never downloaded this .pdf reader so I'm not sure where it came from. I use Adobe Acrobat.

I've searched for Acresso, Nuance, and did a general search (as per one of the posts found at the link below) for "software" and I come up with zilch. Can't figure out how to find it to remove it other than doing regedit which i've never done before.

Grateful for any advice at this point.

Laurie

Take a look at this page about "Acresso Software Inc" (Nuance Software Manager)... What is Acresso software manager agent and how do I get rid of it? - Microsoft Community


It's up to you if you want to uninstall the PDF reader or not.


I've seen many say that Sumatra is a good, free PDF reader. Just make sure you uncheck any pre-checked boxes when downloading and installing! Download Sumatra PDF 2.5.2 - FileHippo.com

Ok, I went to msconfig and deactivated everything. But there was no Software Manager listed.
