On 06/08/2012 I decided to run my first Full Scan with McAfee Security   
   Suite after they had instructed me how to Remove the old copy and   
   download and install their latest version back in early May 2012.   
      
   There were three programs found which had PUPs (Potentially Unwanted   
   Programs) in the result listing.   
      
   The first two programs McAfee found were programs that I had downloaded.   
      
   One was from Nirsoft and their website said that some Virus Scanners   
   might show their program to be a Virus but it isn't a Virus, this file   
   was mentioned by Kim Komando one day so I downloaded it.   
      
   The second program was a Password Cracker, which I think is OK also.   
      
   The last program found that was identified as a PUP was a file that HP   
   had on my computer, in one of its directories, when I bought the   
   XP computer in 2006 called KILLWIND.EXE .   
      
   The McAfee report called it a RemAdm-PSKill PUP, instead of calling it a   
   Virus or a Trojan.   
      
   I decided to click the McAfee button labeled "Decide Later" so I could   
   investigate some more, instead of telling the security suite to   
   Quarentine this last program it found.   
      
   I haven't written HP yet, but from the name of the file it looks to me   
   like a program written for a XP Administrator to use.   
      
   I Am "THE" ADMINISTRATOR Here!    ;-)   
      
   I don't think I'd ever use this program, but I figure if HP put it there   
   they had a reason for it being on my computer.   
      
   Back on 09/08/2007 I made a text file of all the programs on the C: drive   
   using DIR /S > filename.txt so I could refer to it later on if I wanted   
   to see what files were on my computer back then.   
      
   KILLWIND.EXE showed up in the list at C:\HP\BIN\KillWind.exe with a date   
   of 02/20/2001 04:35 PM using 32768 Bytes.   
      
   I just looked in that directory and the file date and file size are   
   still the same today.   
      
   I would like to know what others think about my keeping these three PUPs   
   on my computer as I think they are OK and nothing to worry about, even   
   though McAfee says I should be worried about them.   
      
   Thanks!
