How do I find a list of trusted pup's on my computer. I think I messed up and allowed some. How do I find them and get rid of them. And, what are they? I know they are not something you necessarily want on your computer. Thanks, everyone. Larry
 
There's really no such thing as a trusted potentially unwanted program. Even if you chose to install some, they would still be 'potentially unwanted'. If there is some kind of malware, following these guidelines should help find them.
