When posting your problem, do not run and post a ComboFix log. ComboFix is a tool that should only be run under the supervision of someone who has been trained in its use. Using it on your own can cause problems with your computer. Any posts containing CF Logs will be ignored.

To receive help, you should instead provide a detailed description of your problem, detailed word-for-word error messages that you are receiving, screenshots of strange behaviour, and your operating system. This information is much more useful to our helpers than a ComboFix log.

Hey all
Just stopped to say hi and to let you know if you all get hit by Fake Microsoft Essentials Virus.
1)Use Malwarbytes Free
2)Super Antispyware Free
3)Dr Web Cureit
4)Avest Antivirus Free
Run Full Scan with All of them and that should get it.
This thing is hard to get rid off these are the steps that worked for me.
You might try a shorter way with Malwarbytes and Avest Antivirus.
Avest antivirus Scanner is darn good it took care of internet redirecting problem and windows error pop up problem.
Maybe this will help someone from messing with there PC FOR TWO DAYS TRYINT TO GET RID OF THIS PEST. Later Raner
