Pareto Logic is a software manufacturer of "**...**an array of software, including a registry cleaner, spyware removers, anti-spyware and much more."

Uninstall information is based on the actual application you have on your PC. I'd suggest you visit their tech support page for more information.

I used the method below...

**Answer:**It’s actually one word, Paul: ParetoLogic, and it’s a legitimate spyware scanner and removal tool. Whether you should have kept it is strictly up to you, but it sounds to me like you already decided you don’t need it, and are only having second thoughts because of the problem you’re having. Let’s fix that.

You’ll be pleased to know that you actually successfully removed the ParetoLogic software from your system. What’s left behind is a scheduled task in Windows to remind you to register your copy. To remove it, click on the Start button, and where it says “Search programs and files” type the word “task” and Task Scheduler will appear at or near the top of the list.

Click it to activate it. When it comes up, look in the list of tasks that you’ll find about halfway down the window in the middle column. Find the task in this list named “Paretologic Registration”. Select it; then in the Actions list, click “Delete”, and then back out of the dialog. Bye-bye Paretologic!

Q: I get the following recurring Norton popup: Auto Protect is processing security risk. Suspicious Cloud.7.EP. It has degraded my PC performance. In addition to being slow, when searching for a site on the net it will often take you to a totally unrelated site.

I have Windows 7 and use Norton 360. Per your recent article (I.G.T.M. Issue #320 – Sep 8, 2013) I disconnected the internet, booted under Safe Mode, ran a total system scan, reattached the internet and did a normal boot. I continue to get the same Norton Message.

Any suggestions? I am not very good with computers. Any help you can provide will be greatly appreciated.

Yeah same situation, this thing just added itself and says its with Microsoft... cant see it anywhere but it pops up and does a scan every now and then. I am guessing its something Microsoft added to their updates, mystery, I dont like it!

If it was Microsoft I am not going to be happy, but far less happy if it is a hack program or something, I dont download so I am assuming its Microsofts Auto Update that sucked it into my system...grrr

Now to uninstall we need to download an uninstaller... sure and ill grab some xxx material while I wait for it to install and leave more junk on my pc! Microsofft Team...where are you on this one?
