Hi All,
Every time I go to a new web page, a new IE window opens up to advertising or a virus removal service.
I ran an Avast thorough scan and it eliminated two viruses, but still have the same problem.
Discovered a new program in Windows ‘Prefetch’ folder that appeared at the time of infection.
Anyone know what the problem is and how to correct?

Hi :
Sounds like you have One of the many “Rogue” programs currently infecting
computers. The PRIMARY program to deal with these “Rogues” is the FREE
Version of Malwarebytes’ Anti-Malware, available at
www.malwarebytes.org/mbam.php .

Spiritsongs, do you know more about RogueRemover updates? Will it be dropped by Malwarebytes?
