(1) Bloatware was installed: 3 browsers were infected. Firefox / Chrome / Internet Explorer
(2) I disabled add-ons. Insufficient.
(3) Add/remove Programs: uninstalled 3 programs that were installed during Imgburn install. Insufficient.
(4) Malwarebytes: Scan identified a plethora of bloatware, or PUP. And yes, they were unwanted programs. Insufficient.
(5) I reset Firefox / Chrome / Internet Explorer to defaults. THIS WORKED. - Of course, I lost my speed tab shortcuts.
Yes folks, that's how invasive this bloatware is. It sinks its hooks in and cannot be removed unless you reset your browser.
I am going to share this information as I see fit. I am thoroughly disgusted and think Lightning UK should be slapped silly with a week old rotten brook trout.
Bloatware - Yes, I opted out - Yet didn't work.
