I am being pounded with all sorts of crap that I neither want or need. One of them is the 'softwareupdater' or so it says. I also get tons of ads. How do I stop them without completely reloading my operating system & starting from fresh. I understand we get a lot of these because of bogus forms that we inadvertently complete. They trick people into completing these things by including such things as 'Small Print' I would like to burn them all. Some help, as promised, would be nice. Thanks.
