There is no adware/virus destributed from Steam, nothing to clean.

You really should read a little about it.

Akamai is a content hosting provider and a lot of big companies use them.

You obviously have no clue about what you are researching or reading about Akamai.

You could as easily say "Let's delete complete internet, because there is infected sites out there"

Lets be clear about something, Akamaihd.net is a legitimate content delivery network which webmasters use to speed up their sites. Unfortunately, there are some adware programs that are injecting these ads onto web sites you visit without the permission of the publisher in order to generate revenue.

As I said, you have no clue.

I can name an adware program Decoy®, but that doesn't mean you made or visiting your profile will infect someone.

There is a difference, afterall.
