A few preliminaries, plus I would urge you to Use Windows' Disk Cleanup =
to delete all temporary files.

Extra Note:
If MBAM encounters a file that is difficult to remove, you will be =

MBAM is an excellent first-line program to use and keep. However, you do =
need to run other tools to insure all crudware is gone.
