    Hi,

    I keep having "shredder" pop up and not found on my aspire 3820tg 7964. I thought I had removed it all. But when I click on the google chrome pinned link to a site it starts searching for it... any thought to get rid of it.

    Thank you.

    When you removed it, how did you remove it?

    Am I right in guessing it is some sort of file shredder for your machine?

    Have you tried removing with Revo Uninstaller?, it removes related entries with the program.
