      After Lenovo and Dell have done some pretty nefarious things claiming to be "adware" (to be clear, adware and malware and different things, just because malware is used to show ads doesn't stop it from being malware) Microsoft is adding some security to Windows to curtail the ability to undermine Windows security in this manner in the future.
