Things were fine for me before installing the infected ccleaner build, i uninstalled it a few days ago, downloaded the latest version, then used it and unistalled it, running full kaspersky and Superantispyware scans, kaspersky apparently deletes it but i’m getting infected over and over again.
Deleteting firefox cache is useless.
The trojan is located here: C:\Users\XXX\AppData\Local\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\whlfdd8z.default\cache2\entries\58F2E9636A000421FBA1DE6D970119BC33C5FA5D//whlfdd8z
Should i blame Avast or Kaspersky here?
BTW malware bytes, windows defender and Superantisypware don’t detect any trojan on my PC only Kaspersky.
And before someone tells me these are the Avast Forums not Kasperksy’s ones i need to say that things were fine for me before installing the virulent CCleaner.exe 5.33, man when i discovered last week that Avast bought it a few months ago… >:( I’m so pissed off.
Whenever you do cleansing, also with CCleaner, best policy is to set a restore point before cleansing,
or let the cleansing be handled by MS’OS itself, but their cleansing is pretty basic.
Registry cleansing using CCleaner never came without risks, Microsoft knows their registry best,
that’s why my advice of setting a restore point before every “drastic” actions ont the OS.
Better safe than sorry always has been my basic line of reasoning.
Have you tried using another browser? Edge, IE, Chrome. Does the problem happen there too? Have you tried resetting/uninstalling + re-installing FireFox?
