I just installed McAfee virusscanprofessional 8.0 and low and behold, no viruses but spyware file "DSSAgent.exe" was identified as a program I probably would like to delete. I quarantined it and checked it out on Google. It's a type of sypware probably ultimate from Broderbund which interferes with start up, shut down, and generates targeted pop up ads. When I disabled it, I stopped getting pop ups from this site and my computer is running much better. Was it downloaded to my computer from here? If it was, I am disgusted and ready to throw it in.

This program was installed during manufacturing. Broderbund has a removal tool on their web site. McAfee can also remove it.
