    It's an Inspiron...

    This one: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Dell-Inspiron-15-6-inch-Laptop-Black/dp/B00BBT3H9A

    and I need to get it running smoothly... it's chock full of bloatware, PUPs, and potentially some legit malware...

    on it right now...

    currently doing a boot-time scan with avast to get rid of the harder targets first...

    malwarebytes afterwards to hit the leftovers...

    ccleaner to wipe the traces...

    then running a quick defrag...

    ob a side note, I might have to bring in ad-aware to the party... Lots of adware popped up in the boot time scan...
