Didnt do as you described for Chrome as it seems to perform correctly now so ran the TDSSKiller and it found no threats, below is log:


Ok, no worries then on Chrome. :thumbsup: Let's run some scans for orphans and remnants.


Please disable your antivirus for the duration of my instructions. Don't forget to re-enable them after you have completed the steps.


Step 1: Scan with Malwarebytes


Start the progam and select update
Once it has updated select Settings > Detection and Protection
Tick Scan for rootkits

Go back to the Dashboard and select Scan Now

If threats are detected, click the Apply Actions button, MBAM will ask for a reboot.

MBAMLog_zpsade07f42.jpg

On completion of the scan (or after the reboot), start MBAM,

Click History, then Application Logs, then check the Select box by the first Scan Log in the list and then click on the log to highlight it.

Click Export, select text file and save to the desktop as MBAM.txt and post in your next reply.



Step 2: Scan with ESET Online Scanner


Please note: You can use Internet Explorer or Firefox for this step. Either browser used will have to be ran in admin mode.

Right click on either the Internet Explorer icon or the Firefox icon in the Start Menu or Quick Launch Bar on the Task bar and select Run as Administrator from the menu.

If you use Firefox, you will be prompted to download esetsmartinstaller_enu.exe. Please do so, then double click it to install it.

Please click on this link and then click the ESET Online Scanner bar ---->esetbar_zps93905f48.jpg
  • Select the option YES, I accept the Terms of Use then click on Start
  • When prompted allow the Add-On/Active X to install.
  • Make sure that the option Remove found threats is NOT checked.
  • Make sure that the option Scan archives is checked.
  • Now click on Advanced Settings and select the following:
  • Scan for potentially unwanted applications
  • Scan for potentially unsafe applications
  • Enable Anti-Stealth Technology
  • Now click on Start
  • The virus signature database will begin to download. Be patient this make take some time depending on the speed of your Internet Connection.
  • When completed the Online Scan will begin automatically. The scan may take several hours.
  • Do not touch either the Mouse or keyboard during the scan otherwise it may stall.
  • Now click on Finish
  • Use notepad to open the logfile located at C:\Program Files(x86)\ESET\EsetOnlineScanner\log.txt.
  • Copy and paste that log as a reply to this topic.
Step 3: SecurityCheck Scan


Download Security Checksecuritycheck_zpsb7736812.jpg by screen317 from here or here.
  • Save it to your Desktop.
  • Double click SecurityCheck.exe and follow the onscreen instructions inside of the black box.
  • NOTE: If SecurityCheck aborts and you get the following message: UNSUPPORTED OPERATING SYSTEM! ABORTED! try rebooting the system and then run SecurityCheck again.
  • A Notepad document should open automatically called checkup.txt; please post the contents of that document.

Hello :)

Excellent, only 5 items to remove and only a couple of programs to update. :thumbsup:

Please disable your antivirus for the duration of my instructions. Don't forget to re-enable them after you have completed the steps.


Step 1: Fix with FRST
  • Open notepad (Start =>All Programs => Accessories => Notepad). Please copy the entire contents of the code box below. (To do this highlight the contents of the box, right click on it and select copy.
  • Right-click in the open notepad and select Paste).
  • Save it on the desktop as fixlist.txt

    NOTE: It's important that both files, FRST/FRST64 and fixlist.txt are in the same location or the fix will not work.

Start
CreateRestorePoint:
C:\Users\pete626\AppData\Local\ae0e8845-86ce-4d69-ab32-458c19632b17.crx
C:\Users\pete626\AppData\LocalLow\Sun\Java\Deployment\cache\6.0\36\54f6ffe4-3bf7c440
C:\Users\pete626\AppData\LocalLow\Sun\Java\Deployment\cache\6.0\36\54f6ffe4-64952f14
C:\Users\pete626\AppData\LocalLow\Sun\Java\Deployment\cache\6.0\9\3a540fc9-491e6761
C:\Users\pete626\Downloads\ccsetup328.exe
End


NOTICE: This script was written specifically for this user, for use on that particular machine. Running this on another machine may cause damage to your operating system.


Run FRST and press the Fix button just once and wait. The tool will make a log on the desktop (Fixlog.txt) please post it in your next reply.


Step 2: Program Updates

Update Adobe flash Player
  • Your current version of Adobe Flash is out of date. Please update it by clicking the link below.
  • Also, make sure you Uncheck the box to install the McAfee Security Scan Plus software.
http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/


Updating Adobe Reader
  • Malware will exploit any vulnerabilities it can find in outdated software. If you are using Adobe Reader for reading pdf files, try using FoxIt Reader. It is a very capable alternative to Adobe.
  • Please click here to download FoxIt Reader.
  • If you wish to continue to use Adobe Reader, then please update it by clicking here.
  • Please remember to uncheck the option to install McAfee's Security Suite.

I went ahead and uninstalled Adobe Reader 9.1 with Foxit Reader, updated the Flash Player and here is the Fixlog:


:thumbsup: Looks good, subject to no further problems, let's remove my tools and create a new clean restore point on the machine. I also have some tips and information to help protect you in the future.


Step 1: Tool Removal with Delfix and Creation of a clean restore point
  • Download Delfix from here
  • Ensure Remove disinfection tools is ticked
    Also tick:
    • Create registry backup
    • Purge system restore
    • Reset System Settings
    delfix.jpg
  • Click Run
The program will run for a few moments and then notepad will open with a log. Please paste the log in your next reply.
  • You can uninstall ESET Online Scanner at this time.
  • I recommend keeping Malwarebytes Anti-Malware installed. Make sure to update it and run it at least once a week. If it finds things such as PUP's (Potentially Unwanted Programs) you can delete those with no worries. However, if it finds something like a trojan, come see us.
Step 2: Tips, Information, and Optional Installation of Unchecky
  • Watch what you open in your emails. If you get an email from an unknown source with any attached files, do not open it.
  • Install and keep only one anti-virus on your machine. Update it and scan your machine with it at least once a week.
  • Be careful of the websites you visit.
  • When installing new programs, don't be "click happy" and click through the screens. Many programs come with adware in them and are set to install them by default. Several programs require that you uncheck or select no to prevent the installation. Take your time and read each screen as you go. :)
To help protect yourself while on the web, I recommend you read How did I get infected in the first place?

Installation of Unchecky

This is a very good little program that will automatically uncheck any boxes during a software installation. This helps prevent the software from installing any malware that is by default checked while the program is being installed.
  • Click here to be taken to Unchecky.com
  • Click the very large Download button.
  • Click Save
  • Once downloaded, double click the program (Vista, Win 7, and 8, right click and Run as Administrator)
  • Once open, click the Install button.
unchecky1_zps667e512d.jpg


Then click Finish

unchecky2_zpsca4e7d0d.jpg


Unchecky is now installed and will help you keep unwanted check boxes unchecked. :thumbsup:

You're very welcome, it's my pleasure. :) I recommend using Avast antivirus. It has a free version so that all you have to do is register with an email address and they'll send you a key. Enter the key and you're good for a whole year. You can also upgrade it if you like. My setup includes weekly scans with Malwarebytes and Avast. :thumbsup:
