NOTE: Some PUPS, may leave traces after running the Panda Cloud Cleaner scan. For example, if your browser's start page is still modified, all you need to do is make sure the browser shortcuts are clean. To do so, right-click on the browser shortcut (usually located at the Desktop), go to Properties, click the Shortcut tab and remove the long URL in the Target field.
