Top Potentially Unwanted Programs (PUPs)
PUPs-
Software programs written by legitimate companies that may alter the security state or the privacy posture of the computer on which they are installed. This software can but does not necessarily include spyware, adware, and dialers, and could be downloaded in conjunction with a program that the user wants. Security-minded users know about such programs and, in some case, have them removed.
