Every once in a while, I discover useful utilities when browsing the web. MajorGeeks.Com happens to be one of them. The “Switch Hitter” application mentioned in the main article caught my attention, and I decided to browse the site's other utilities.

My new MSI PC is a fabulous computer. Unfortunately, it also came with McAfee and Norton that also serve as nag ware unless you subscribe to their service. I’m already a MalwareBytes user, and the nagware of the applications above was becoming more than just a nuisance. You can find utilities to remove them at MajorGeeks.Com - MajorGeeks.

I used the McAfee remover and it worked like a charm. No more NAG ads.
