update your Microsoft Product and your Adobe products from the source page and you should be fine. Very important if you install Unreal Engine based demos make sure you download them from a trustworthy source. And of course keep your AV up to date as always. Happy Gaming

Reply to Windows 8 and delayed run of Stardock programs. in ObjectDock WinCustomize Forums

I wrote about the delay before and mentioned it couple of times the delay is used to make sure that all the modern apps are fully loaded once the users enters windows since normally the user ends up on the start page. The delay also benefits older hardware. Removing the delay. Well i removed it in the first or second month after windows8 was released.

[quote who="Borg999" reply="6" id="3525849"] Harmless? It was the most intrusive and aggressive PUP I've ever dealt with. It's a mistake to blow it off just because I happened to do a quick Google search and linked to the "wrong" sites. Those sites gave instructions on how to get rid of it manually, and that's what I did. I didn't use any of those programs, as I don't trust random software offered by unknown vendors. Removing it was not simple. Not only did it change
