Hi Ellie -
Let me gather a bit more information, please. Are you still experiencing the original issues?
Please download
SmitfraudFix (by
S!Ri)
Extract the content (a folder named
SmitfraudFix) to your Desktop.
Open the
SmitfraudFix folder and double-click
smitfraudfix.cmd
Select option
#1 -
Search by typing
1 and press
"Enter"
and a text file will appear which lists infected files (if present).
Please copy/paste the content of that report into your next reply.
IMPORTANT: Do NOT run option #2 OR any other option until you are directed to do so!
Create an uninstall list:
- Open HiJackThis
- Click on the button " Open the Misc Tools section"
- Click on the Box that says "Open Uninstall Manager"
- Click on the button "Save list"
- Copy and past the List from the notepad file into your post
Download and run
Blacklight
Note that you must have local administrative privileges to run the program.
Click Scan. BlackLight will use Windows Explorer (the desktop process) to scan for hidden items. Your anti-virus software or personal firewall might display a warning that says Blacklight (blbeta.exe) is trying to manipulate the Windows Explorer process (explorer.exe). If you want to continue the scan, you should allow BlackLight to do this
When it finishes, click Next. You may get a screen similar to the picture below. Click on Close
BlackLight beta would create a log file "fsbl-<date-and-time>.log". By default, the log file is in the same directory as the executable. Please post the log
