I already uninstall it but it keeps appearing every time I’m going to open Google Chrome. Instead of the google page to show up is the vgrabber page the one that u can see!!! I used the OTL run scan and quick scan but dont know what I’m supposed to do with the OTL txt and the Extras txt that gave me? How can I get rid of vgrabber???
run AdwCleaner…click the delete button…post the log here
run a quick scan with Malwarebytes…if anything is found. click remove selected button and post log here
you find them here http://forum.avast.com/index.php?topic=53253.0
did that fix it ?
If that doesn’t clear it up you might try JunkwareRemovalTool as well. They actually will pick up different entries.

Please download Junkware Removal Tool to your desktop.
[]Shut down your protection software now to avoid potential conflicts.
[]Run the tool by double-clicking it. If you are using Windows Vista, 7, or 8; instead of double-clicking, right-mouse click JRT.exe and select “Run as Administrator”.
[]The tool will open and start scanning your system.
[]Please be patient as this can take a while to complete depending on your system’s specifications.
[]On completion, a log (JRT.txt) is saved to your desktop and will automatically open.
[]Post the contents of JRT.txt into your next message.
Didn’t mean to intrude…back to you Pondus.

Thank you!!! One last thing, I’m supposed to uninstall the Malwarebytes now or it doesnt affect the antivirus and firewall??? And now the computer is showing this message: Windows has detected an IP address conflict. Another computer on this network has the same IP address as this compuet. Contact your network administrator for help resolving this issue. What this mean?
Malwarebytes is safe to keep, update it periodically before running scans.
Your other question will require one of the more knowledgeable in that area to answer.
And where can I find help???
you still have the problem?.. wait for Essexboy or Jeffce to arrive…they are notified

I don’t know if I did the process correctly :-\ When I Paste the Code to the box, it was supposed to show a message or something? I don’t know much about computers. Because I paste it, press enter and closed it and it didn’t do anything else! I just want to know if I did something wrong!?
