I have tried the combofix the tdskiller and then running avast but my searches on Google are all getting sent to this happili redirect.

Is therea a fix anyone can walk me through here? I have tried running a quick scan and a full scan on my pc and other than some adware avast doesnt pick it up.

Thanks ahead of time.

follow the guide and attach logs from malwarebytes / OTL / aswMBR

Could you confirm that this is in Firefox only ?

Mine is in IE not Firefox.

Nothing seems to be able to get rid of it.

Could you attach the logs please

It’s a system wide infection caused by a rootkit from the ZAccess family, most likely the ZAccess.fxd variant. It doesn’t matter which browser you use. Too bad Avast doesn’t have a fix for it since it’s one of the most wide spread infections at the moment. Please correct me if I’m wrong.

First, use TDSS or ZeroAccess removal tools to remove the core components of this infection. TDSSKilkler is probably the most popular one but sometimes it fails to remove malicious memory modules, so the infection comes back once you restart your PC.

aswMBR and Avast 7 can cure some of the zero access variants, but bear in mind they are changing daily if not hourly

Also some variants have a protection driver, again aswMBR will remove that but TDSSKiller will not

Generally a manual removal is required

So a look at the logs would help

So…the question issue remains unsolved?..does Avast have an update or a tool to completely remove this virus?..is there a step-by-step way to remove it? Any assistance is appreciated.

Generally Happi can be associated with an apparent legitimate file in addition to the MBR infection
