Got this yesterday, spent the day scanning cleaning nothing helped. Did a system restore to the latest backup, but half the files on my desktop is gone. Now I cant run or update malwarebytes. here is the ots scan.
Hi OTS is no longer supported or updated so it misses a lot of the infections

Yes I was getting that popup while not searching. However today I opened firefox and it said that it was already running, I couldn’t get it to stop so I uninstalled it.
I will download Rouge Killer and upload the report here when done.
[*]Then click the Run Fix button at the top
[*]Let the program run unhindered, reboot the PC when it is done
[*]Open OTL again and click the Quick Scan button. Post the log it produces in your next reply.

It seems to be running ok. I am still getting popup notifications from Avast blocking malware even though I don’t have any browsers open or running. I am concerned about this.
Here is the new OTL scan. After my last post I rebooted my computer and I haven’t seen anymore popups from Avast. If it happens I will get you a screenshot.
Yes I am still getting the popups even with no browsers open. I clicked on one and it was stopsmokingpumaDOTcom I think one of the others was a ~pumaDOT com too.
