i am using avast premier and my avast did not found this virus. it automatically opens the homepage whenever i open any browser in my laptop.
please help me to remove this virus.i tried mbam free and also tried adware but none of them captured this virus.i searched on google and it reviews says that safesurfs.net is virus which comes in browsers and automatically opens page.
i done as u said.and this is that log file. i tried to restart browsers and that safesurf is not opening. safesurf is gone from browsers.i think the procedure u said it worked in it.thank u very much for help.
will my laptop affect any side effects after the procedure as u said?will it delete any important registry etc?
We will not delete any important files and any changes we make to your system (viewing hidden files, etc.) we will correct when the removal process is finished.

Clean up of Malware Removal Tools
Now that we are through using these tools, let’s clean them off your system so that should you ever need to have malware removed again (we hope not) fresh, updated copies will be downloaded.
[]Download Delfix from here to your desktop and double click it to start the program
[*]Ensure Remove disinfection tools is ticked Also tick:
[]Activate UAC
[]Create registry backup
[]Purge system restore
[*]Reset system settings
[*]Click Run
[*]The program will run for a few moments and then notepad will open with a log. Note: Please save this log first before rebooting your system (if asked to); DelFix does not save the log as it is trying to remove all traces of our work on your system. Please attach the log in your next reply.
You can delete any log files left on your desktop as these are no longer needed.
system looks good now.but when i restart laptop it takes about 1 minute to load my desktop page. i have about 90 icons and shortcuts and folders together at my desktop.
is it taking time to load due to having about 90 icons folders and shortcut on desktop?
As long as the scanners (Avast and MBAM) show clean, you should be good to go right now. As to the long loading time, give it a few days for the changes to ‘settle’ in and see if the time improves.
