I am :mad:

I've just downloaded Filezilla FTP program from Sourceforge and it's installed some Spyware on my shiny new Surface Pro 3. :mad:

Windows did question when I tried to install the program, saying it was from an unknown Publisher. I guess that was a warning sign. However, I had used Filezilla on my previous machine with no problems.

Anyway, I installed and now have annoying browser spyware. I would have hoped Windows Defender would have blocked the spyware install, but alas no.

So, what's the best way forward now?

Thanks
