I have something nasty on my pc which keeps randomly generating popup ads and sometimes opens up Explorer (which I don't ever use) on random web pages, including:
Blinkx.com
c5.zedo.com
and others
I have tried to manually delete what I though were suspect entries found using Hijack this
I've also scanned with Spywaredoctor - which didn't find anything other than low risk cookie collecting files
Downloaded freeware malwarebytes ANti Malware - this found 20 files which it removed but the problem didn't go
the file I thought it was looking for was called Antivirus 360 but Malwarebytes didn't find any trace of this on my pc
I have had this problem for 2 hours or so.
can you help ?
