Hello Avast Guru’s

My computer navigated by itself (as far as I can tell) to wXw.mrspytool.com. The page displayed indicated a suspended account and the full address was http://wXw.mrspytool.com/cgi-sys/suspendedpage.cgi

I can’t find any information anywhere about what mrspytool is and given it’s name I’m a little concerned. No reputable websites have been visited in recent history that would re-direct me…

Does anyone know what mrspytool is? Avast Internet Security hasn’t suggested anything is amiss…

Thanks!

Sounds like defunct adware

Please download Farbar Recovery Scan Tool and save it to your Desktop.

Note: You need to run the version compatible with your system. If you are not sure which version applies to your system download both of them and try to run them. Only one of them will run on your system, that will be the right version.

[*]Right click to run as administrator (XP users click run after receipt of Windows Security Warning - Open File). When the tool opens click Yes to disclaimer.
[*]Select additions at the bottom
[*]Press Scan button.

[*]It will produce a log called FRST.txt in the same directory the tool is run from.
[*]Please attach both logs generated.
