Hey - that's a long time!
Think about it: your PC has time for 1.2E13 instructions, so that's loads of time to solve a CCC!

I assume the PC is as smart as the person between the keyboard and chair. So in that case, I can safely say my PC is not very fast and smart

They are in Victoria and Western Australia respectively, what other reason do you need.

I have noticed recently that my desktop seems a little slower, so today I scanned it with Malwarebytes. It found 7 instances of ByteFence applications on my machine. It lists ByteFence as a "Potentially Unwanted Program" (PUP), not as malware. Apparently this particular pest gets onto your machine by being bundled with other applications.
Does anybody here know which software carries ByteFence as additional payload when it is installed, so one can avoid it in future?
By the way: Malwarebytes apparently did get rid of ByteFence.

I typically cancel install as soon as there is any whiff of an installer containing bundled "software". The upshot? 95% of the time, the installer can be cracked open with your archive software of choice and the real installer extracted. I find it's the only way to be (reasonably) sure you know what's getting installed.
Maybe this should be a feature of virus scanners? Try to unzip the file, and if it finds multiple executables, flags it as potential bundleware? Maybe also provide a list of the files, so you can tell the difference between true crapware and something that simply shipped with a redist? Dunno, seems useful to me.

Have a look at UnCkecky. If you install that, it will automatically uncheck any other software bundled with new software you are installing. That prevents the unwanted ones from being installed automatically.

Thanks! I'll look into it.

Just a random thought:
Why is it that when I want to buy a formal shirt, I can get one to an exact collar size but if I want to buy a casual shirt, I'm confronted with some ill-defined system of S, M, L, XL that will, no doubt, vary in meaning from one sweat-shop to the next?
Slogans aren't solutions.

Probably because formal shirts are normally worn with a tie and / or a suit with the top button done up. A half-inch (or one cm) error insize is very noticeable and "looks wrong".
With a casual shirt, the collar isn't buttoned close to the neck, so it doesn't matter if it's an inch or three too big. (Too small still looks silly though.)

Well, yes, but it looks equally silly if it's squeezing my belly or it looks like you could get three of me in there.
We have standard sizes for shoes, why not shirts?

We don't really have standard shoe sizes, either. I wear a different size Nike than I do New Balance.

There are standard sizes but you're right, that does not mean that a 10 in Nike fits the same as a 10 in Adidas.
There are two kinds of people in the world: those who can extrapolate from incomplete data.
There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.

I wear two different sizes with different style Nikes.
