Issues with unwanted adds
Hello Everyone,
For a few days now, I have been unable to connect to many of my favorite sites: Hotmail, facebook, game sites among a few. I am also getting unwanted spam in my internet brower... Pages such as youtube have advertising?? I have tried running malware-bite anti malware, but it does not fix the issue. |
Which browser are you using. Have you tried a different browser???
It sounds like your browser has been hijacked, malaware progs wont necessarily find and fix those problems.. When you start your browser, what page does it open??? |
OK, usual thorough clean out required
1) reset Internet explorer to defaults 2) clean the hard drive of junk (drive properties > disk cleanup) 3) download and run Hitman Pro 4) download and run in safe mode RKILL (to disable running bots) 5) without rebooting, assuming 32-bit windows, download and run Smitfraudfix (in safe mode) 6) without rebooting, download and run in safe mode Combofix 7) if you know what you're doing, at this stage download Autoruns to go over the startup programs and routines and disable anything "wrong" 8) Now run Malwarebytes (pointless running it earlier) 9) Download and run Spybot Search & Destroy these are not alternatives - to do it properly you need to run all in sequence |
