Junkware Removal Tool - Malwarebytes
I like this as it is a fast, focused, and portable tool to remove and repair a number of malware/ad-ware/junkware/PUP focused programs. It is one of the “first-strike” tools I deploy against a heavily infected system I may be servicing for a friend or family member.
Load up and carry on!
