See how Malwarebytes for Windows makes antivirus obsolete with a 14-day free trial of Premium.
Just a while ago my Adwcleaner detected two registry keys under type name 'PUP.Optional.VLCPlusPlayer.DE'. Quick Googling doesn't give much info about it, but nevertheless I quarantined it. I've not installed any new programs or such to my PC for a very long time, even less from any shady website. Malwarebytes for Windows comes in two flavors: a free version and a premium version. Premium prevents malware infection in the first place, like a vaccine. Free cleans up an existing malware infection, like a disinfectant. The only way to get rid of vfgrse is by getting Adwcleaner, Malwarebytes, or Google Chrome itself. Steps for Adwcleaner: After detecting the threats, click the arrow under the specific threat. After that, make sure it says Google Chrome in it and if it isn't checked in the box.
