False Security Alerts (pop-ups) for alleged "Sinowal.Trojan"; suspicious links
To whom it may concern,
Today I began receiving pop-ups that appeared to be related to the Windows Firewall under the heading "Security Center Alert" that warned of a piece of suspicious software called "Sinowal.Trojan" on my computer and gave me an option to "Enable Protection". The aforementioned link takes you to a website for Perfect Defender 2009; some sort of rogue anti-spyware lookalike, apparently. At any rate, I can't get these stupid pop-ups to go away (they respawn every 10 minutes or so) nor can I get certain applications to work properly, like Mozilla Firefox and Thunderbird. The only browser I can use is Safari, and it's been crashing a good bit as well. MalwareBytes hasn't been able to fix the problem, and I recently found your website in hopes of figuring this out once and for all. I just want to get rid of this malware. Here are the requested logs. I received an error when trying to attach "Attach.txt" that reads: "Upload Errors
Attach.txt:
Attachment in Progress. Can be deleted here."
Thank you very much for your help and for donating your time!
Sincerely,
J. Addison
