hey can anyone please please help me out to get rid of this malware. it infected all my browsers (google chrome and internet explorer) when i click on any link, a new tab opens directing me to totaladperformance page. sometimes even without clicking a link, the page just opens. Also it infected the browsers i have on my cellphone!! the browsers keeps opening this totaladperfromance page but not in a new tab, in the same tab and of course this prevents me from browsing anything on my cellphone anymore.
avast actually detects it on my laptop but doesn’t remove it. I tried adwcleaner and spyhunter but both didn’t remove it as well.
i scanned by FRST and attached the .txt or log files
i’ll really appreciate your help
and please tell me if you have a solution for my cellphone too…thanks!
Always have one (and no more than one!) AntiVirus program! In this case having more of them will not provide you with better protection - instead they may cause slowness, lock-ups and even mark another ones as harmful, leading to leave your system unstable and even damaged. Please choose only one from the listed below to stay with and uninstall the others:
Please download ZOEK by Smeenk and save it to your desktop (preferred version is the *.exe one)
Temporary disable your AntiVirus and AntiSpyware protection - instructions here.
[*]Make sure that Scan All Users option is checked.
[*]Push Run Script and wait patiently. The scan may take a couple of minutes.
[*]When the scan completes, a zoek-results logfile should open in notepad.
[*]If a reboot is needed, it will be opened after it. You may also find it at your main drive (usually C:\ drive)
