Forum Rules

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.


If you have not received help after three days, please post a link to your topic HERE.

On my machine, this virus has hijacked both Mozilla and IE Explorer;
It acts by quickly redirecting any google search to a seemingly random commercial site.
In the split second before redirecting the words "find quick results" can be seen in the browser...

Also, the program seems to be preventing me from downloading any softwares...: (
Currently on my machine I have Combofix, RKill, and MBAM, all have been tried to no avail.
Also have tried system restore which failed...

I have been running machines for a decade without using Antivirus software, and have always just tackled
as they came down the pike...
But these new ones are a huge headache...
Besides how the bleep to I get this off of my computer, what anti-vi should I install in the afterglow?

Hello,

Please follow the instructions in ==>This Guide<== starting at step 6.

Once the proper logs are created, then make a NEW TOPIC and post it ==>HERE<== Since you have run ComboFix, please include the ComboFix log in the new topic. Please be sure to include a description of your computer issues and what you have done to try to resolve them.

If you cannot produce any of the other logs, then please create the new topic anyway, include the information that you were unable to produce the other logs and why and include the ComboFix log along with a description of your computer issues.
