Hi Sir,

Actually the alert is still coming.

Shall I re-run ZHPFix with the same script as earlier (updated one)?

magna86 · 2015-07-02T19:43:41.000Z

No. You go rest and see ya tommorow.

magna86 · 2015-07-02T20:02:56.000Z

@rajuvprasad, do this when you can and when you get time.

We’ll preform manualy random search in attempt to locate some data related for alearts you receive.

Please download SystemLook by jpshortstuff and save it to your Desktop.
http://jpshortstuff.247fixes.com/SystemLook.exe
Alter download link: http://images.malwareremoval.com/jpshortstuff/SystemLook.exe

Right click on SystemLook.exe, select “Run As Administrator…” to run it. If prompted by UAC, please allow it.
If you receive an “Open file - security warning”… asking “Do you want to run this file?”, press the Run button.
Highlight and copy the following entries: into SystemLook’s main text entry window.

:filefind
*browserupdatecheck*
*wpad*
*wpad.browserupdatecheck.in*

:folderfind
*browserupdatecheck*
*wpad*
*wpad.browserupdatecheck.in*

:Regfind
browserupdatecheck
wpad
wpad.browserupdatecheck.in

Press the Look button to start the scan. The scan will take a while (porhaps, even more than hour), so please be patient…
When finished, a Notepad window will open with the results of the scan.
A file will be created (on your Desktop) with the results of the scan, named SystemLook.txt

Please post the contents of the SystemLook.txt file in your next reply.

Once again we shall use FRST for additional checks, just in case. Re-run FRST/FRST64 by double-clicking:

Hi Sir,

Please find both the log files…

magna86 · 2015-07-03T15:06:02.000Z

Hi rajuvprasad,

And this looks like it. All traces of this boring adware should be gone now.

Now, I would like you to download corresponding tcpip.reg, run it to allow registry merge and changes and then reboot PC.

system · 2015-07-03T15:37:56.000Z

Hi Sir,

I have run the tcpip.reg and rebooted.

Everything looks ok, but I cannot identify the difference, as since today morning, I wasn’t seeing the notifications.

Except for the one issue where, sometimes when I click on links in content on any website, some junk pages are getting loaded…
Ofcourse I haven’t seen these in the last 1 hr or so, had been randomly loading up earlier in the day.
here are those links that opened…
