What happened here …

About 2 weeks ago some Malware got into my system.
It rode in on a FREE App called Greenshot that was supposed to offer an alternative to Windows 10 MS Snipping Tool which hadn’t been operating
properly for quite a while.
Consider this a warning about Greenshot which is still being promoted on on the Net in Searches for Free Snipping Tools.
I’d used MS Snipping Tool for many years.
Up till now it had been very useful and appreciated.
But somehow it got compromised and became useless.
Too bad.
So I looked for and downloaded Greenshot that is being promoted on the NET as an useful App.
BUT some ReDirect Malware rode in with it.
And no matter what I tried, I couldn’t get that
Greenshot Malware off my system.
Redirect Malware keeps redirecting your normal Browses to Yahoo
or other sites they’ve been paid to send you to.
This makes your Browers useless.
BUT since my system was long overdue for a cleaning and upgrade anyway,
I asked Rose’s son to install Windows 11.
I’ve been refusing Win 11 up till now, but MS eventually makes
it almost impossible for you not to use their stuff.
Sooooo … now I’m wrestling with Windows 11.
And trying to re-install everything.
‘It’s a process’ as they say …
I am confident I will eventually win.
