Uninstall PC App Store

I was trying to download Glary Utilities onto new laptop, seems I have downloaded PC App store by mistake, this is now bombarding my page with ads for McAfee antivirus. Cannot uninstall PC store, or get rid of McAfee page for good. Help, please, what to do ?

Thanks

Re: education– or lack thereof

I would like to bet that you're not alone, Devil. There are probably thousands of unclaimed bank accounts in credit, floating about in the ether.

Re: education– or lack thereof

I had my first bank account at junior school.

Paid in so much a week, and had my bank book stamped accordingly. I thought that was the norm in the early 50s.

Sadly today, the local bank is long gone. Faceless people to deal with over the phone, that's if you can actually speak to someone.

Re: Electric Cars - Caveat Emptor

No, I, don't want to stay in an EV for 24hrs, in a traffic jam.

That's precisely why I would like those who have done test, so let us see the test taking place.

Re: Lovely and fresh

Initially you didn't state the method by which the people IN Ukraine would know of the post, hence my reply.

I fear that further discourse would not be helpful to this thread.

Merry Christmas.

It's not an opinion as such, rather that I would like to see the results of tests, with my own eyes, and so far, there are non to see. So it's all conjecture as I see it.

Like many ideas, they don't always work in practice.

Re: Polis Christmas Village - 2023

Wow things have certainly changed in Cyprus since we lived there. Our first Christmas was awful, you would never know that it was Christmas, we walked from Geroskipu to Paphos harbour on Christmas day, hardly saw a soul, no lights no decs, nothing, it was dead. So glad to see that things have change...

sadly, I don't think that the people of the Ukraine will have the time, nor the inclination, to login to PL.

Thank you Lincoln, Merry Christmas.

Re: Electric Cars - Caveat Emptor

Mark4007 Rather than relying on one man's opinion, I prefer to wait and see the outcome, if such an event happens on our motorways. Until then I'll stick with what I've got. I see that the article mentions the Tesla again, what is it with those cars, that they seem to be the be all and end all for s...

Re: education– or lack thereof

There is a lot to be said for a good education, but to be able to pass exams, doesn't give you common sense. One can have a string of qualifications, and be as thick as a plank.

I have met some people, just like that.

Re: Electric Cars - Caveat Emptor

Doesn't worry me any, can't afford a Tesla, and even if I could, I still wouldn't buy one. As for EVs, when they can prove to me, that after a few hours of bumper to bumper crawl on our motorways, they can come out and charge my EV, along with all the others in the queue, then forget it. Can't ever ...
