Great Virus - Read this!! (PennyBee and HPUI)
« on: September 21, 2014, 05:36:49 AM »
Avast doesn't see these viruses. Unfortunately them can find only certain programs under the name "SpuHunter" - which elicits money for the help. I looked for information on this product. All speak that it is divorce. I didn't begin to buy and I wrote here. I hope team of developers Avast will deal with this software.

PennyBee and HPUI is not a virus but a PUP
PUP = not virus / Possible Unwanted Program .... crap that comes bundled with other programs you download

avast PUP detection is default off exept for in boot scan, so if you want PUP detection, turn it on

you can also use Malwarebytes FREE and AdwCleaner to remove this crap
