Steps before comming here:
I removed the IGuard (fake AV scanner they offered me) from add/remove programs. and deleted any references i could find to:
freepharmacy
freecasino
etc.
also changed my homepage back to normal.
checked cipher rate (128 bits)
i then performed a windows system update.
turnt of system restore.
scanned with norton (found nothing)
I then deleted the WP.bmp file in the C:\ folder but the WP.exe file wont delete.
Everytime i try to stop popuper from the task manager it doesn't seem to go.(update: fixed this problem after unchecking the "hide OS files" option.)
I'm not too sure either but i think when i got infected not long after, my norton antivirus asked for an update. after giving permission i was told my norton trusted sites list was updated (whether this is related or not).
this got me so far as a black desktop but still only 2 option tabs upon desktop properties.
windows yellow triangle in taskbar warning, flashing about 4 exploits (which when clicked leads to adverts)
Results from the what to do section of this site:
Step 1: Adaware initial scan came up with lots i delted. after comming here and installing a new version with updates i only had things like last windows playlist etc to delete so i deleted all of those.
Step 2: CWShredder found CWS.Homesearch which i removed.
Step 3: SpyBot found no immediate threats
Step 4: I run a full system scan with norton instead of AVG(thanks for advice on only having 1 AV scanner, wasnt aware of that). again nothing found.
Step 5: I ran housecall and found nothing
Step 6: ran TDS-3 - no trojan mutexes found
Step 7- performed express windows update.
restarted system (still have black background. 2 tabs on desktop properties setting. popups and triangular warning in taskbar. along with WP.exe still in C:\ and popup.exe still arriving in task manager.
