Mike, I'm not sure what sites you where checking out, but I didn't find anything seriously wrong with Speed Scan Pro.

Although, I'm not totally sure it isn't malware.

I would suggest getting expert help with malware removal.

Here's a little more detail on what Mike posted.

Hello ,

i did a search for the program then followed a few links and each link that i tried to save the program from AVG pop up the warning signs the the data being downloaded was a potential risk and Windows defender poped up saying the same thing

i did not check evey link but the few i did try gave warnings

i am not saying the program its self is bad but that the links that i tried to save the program from are

those sites may be infected / they may have gotten infected when downloading the program / not the program causing the infection

this is why i seggusted that they use the (Five Steps) to have their system checked

I hope this is better since i cleared my explanation / i will be much more clearer next time

sorry for not a full explanation

Oh, alright. Sorry, I was under the impression you just clicked the website links and not actually tried to download/install the program. I understand more clearly now.

I'm glad you are advising the Five Steps to our newer users here at TSF. It's the only way we allow for our users to get help with malware removal. Mainly because other ways could be harmful to the users computer, which then could make it harder and harder to fix.

Thanks for the explanation, have a good day
