Posted by: Timothy Weaver on 03/01/2015 06:55 AM [ comments Comments ]


Lenovo offered an apology to those affected with their Superfish bloatware. The company also is offering a free six-month subscription of the McAfee LiveSafe security suite for the Superfish affected users. If you would like a better solution, be sure to check out MajorGeeks Top Freeware Picks.


The company writes: "The events of last week reinforce the principle that customer experience, security and privacy must be our top priorities. With this in mind, we will significantly reduce preloaded applications. Our goal is clear: To become the leader in providing cleaner, safer PCs".

Since the debacle, the company has released a SuperFish Removal Tool and is offering detailed instructions to help users remove the adware from their computers. To all who’re affected, Lenovo is now giving away a 6-month subscription of McAfee Livesafe security scanner. If you’re already one of its subscribers, your subscription will be extended by six months.

If you’ve heard of Superfish and are wondering what to do it's easy to remove it with this free tool. Download @ http://www.majorgeeks.com/files/details/superfish_removal_tool.html and watch the video below for how to scan your computer.
