Stop going on dodgy p**n websites! LOL srsly, that's all it is.

 

[172lover]

not that simple im afraid

its blocking most pages
facebook,ebay,
sometimes cliosport.

i think the antivirus scans got rid of the software but left a little bit in the internet explorer and mozilla

 

[Magic Johnson]

And? All dodgy sites. :rasp:

Delete all your internet history, temp files etc

Re-install FF.

These virus's are a pain the arse to get rid of, had one on my computer, works computer and brother in law had one to. No easy fix.

Download HiJackThis and install it. Don't run it or perform a scan yet.
Download Spybot Search & Destroy and install it. Don't run it yet.
Delete the contents of "C:\Windows\Temp", "C:\Documents and Settings\<your username>\Local Settings\Temp" and "C:\Documents and Settings\<your username>\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files". Don't delete the actual folders though, just the contents.
Run HiJackthis. Select everything it finds and click "Fix checked".
Run Spybot S&D and let it update itself, then perform a full system scan. Allow it to remove everything it finds.
Perform a Microsoft Update to fix any security vulnerabilities: Go to http://update.microsoft.com/microsoftupdate to do this, and make sure you install all the critical updates as a bare minimum.
Afterwards, run Windows Defender and perform a full scan of the system just to ensure it doesn't find anything malicious that was missed by the other applications.

These are generic virus / malware removal instructions and don't always work. However, you should notice some improvement either way.

Do bear in mind that most Antivirus software is designed to prevent you actually getting a virus. Most are useless when you actually have a virus already.
In fact, most virii disable your AV/AM software so that it can't remove them.
Follow my instructions above. It WILL remove most of the malware on your machine.

avast

Did you try a boot scan? That normally finds EVERYTHING

 

[172lover]

got it fixed

DMZ - download HiJackThis and ran it but dont think it really found any virus but ticked everything anyway.
virus was still there after reboot.then i thought of combofix 2 min into the scan it said there was a rootkit.10 min later fixed
thanks for the help really appreciated it


how do you do the boot scan in avast?i have avast 5.

thanks again

 

[colossuss]

Erm, I cant exactly remember. If you Google "Schedule boot scan avast 5" I'm sure you'll find something that will tell you how to do it
