PUP keeps coming back

Recommended Posts

I scanned my computer with many programs and only AdwCleaner finds "PUP.Optional.Legacy", it's a Chrome add-on called "MSN Homepage & Bing Search Engine". When I remove and restart the PC it's gone, but when I run chrome, it shows up under the extensions again, it says that the extension was added by another program and asks if I want to enable or disable it. When scanning with AdwCleaner it shows up again.
