I don’t know how it happened, because I wasn’t downloading anything, or looking at any porn. The first sign of this spyware was when IE closed unexpectedly. I just thought I might have exited by accident or something, nothing big.
Then it happened again. This time though fake windows security center alerts starting popping up. I knew they were fake so I just ignored them. It was pretty bad, but it’s gotten a little better know. It only pops up every 5 minutes or so instead of the every minute it did before.
The next thing it does is it says like different virus (it’s different every time). And it wants me to enable protection. I always exit those too.
It’s just gotten to the point where I can’t even function using my computer.
Here’s another thing. When I restart my computer I get these “IE Shortcuts” I think they are IE shortcuts, because they are for ****.com, ****.com, and ***.com….all porn sites.
Which is very weird since last time I viewed porn was like 2 weeks ago…..
But anyway I just delete the shortcuts. Sometimes it will show up again randomly. However the weird think is though, when I restart my computer at other times (I’ve restarted about 8 times tonight), it won’t show up until my computer has been running for about 30 minutes and it will randomly show up.
Another thing is the music/commercials playing in the background. I have no idea where it’s from because all programs are closed…yet I still hear it. I don’t know where it’s from! Ahhh I have to put my computer on mute and I can’t do anything…..
I tried using Malwarebytes Anti-Malware and did both the Quick and Full Scan. I found 1 threat in Quick and 1 in Full, and removed them both. However I still have the problems of Porn Shortcuts, mystery commercials and fake security center alerts.
What can I do to fix it? Also I’m not very computer savvy so some of the words I might not understand, but I just need this off my laptop.
Thanks!
