I just got a new computer and I need to know which files to exclude from searches.

Its an HP and I know from my last computer that HP has spyware like files on your computer and if you delete them it messes up your computer


Advertising.com
Adviva
Coremetrics
Doubleclick
fastflcik
ferret
hitslink
mediaplex
targetnet
valueclick
webtrends live
wildtangent

Any help would be great

Thank you

wildtangent - PUP (possibly unwanted program) or Spybot. What is the actual detection that you got?

Scan and fix all of the above except possibly WildTangent if it was a PUP detection.
