I ran the MBAM. It removed that trojan. Unfortunately, I have had to run it everyday and remove others. It appears that trojan let in more PUPS. I’ve never had this much trouble before.
I seem to have some sort of spyware/adware that opens a new window at random. It is for the same ad everytime. How do I remove that?
Reposted as new topic.
You do update MBAM before you scan ? and click the remove selected button
have you also tried
SuperAntiSpyware 4.44.1000 http://filehippo.com/download_superantispyware/

Yes, I update MBAM before using.
I loaded SuperAntiSpyware and had luck with removing a bunch of adware. I seem to have improved my computer performance. I still had a website pop-up with out warning.

How do I stop this?
Thanks for helping!
You can try cleaning your temp files
TFC - Temp File Cleaner by OldTimer
http://www.geekstogo.com/forum/files/file/187-tfc-temp-file-cleaner-by-oldtimer/
TFC requires a reboot immediately after running. Be sure to save any unsaved work before running TFC.
Ran the Temp cleaner. I still have strange events happening. I am getting a message that avast is blocking Mozilla Firefox.
This has started popping up the first time I connect to the internet during the day. I can still use the internet.
I am now getting redirected to various websites. Avast has the message that Firefox is being blocked more than once today.
How do I get the screen image inserted into this message?
it seems that this malware is rly strong,try avast boot time scan
It was the Win32: Tibs-EOE [Trj] that I first got. Seems there are lots of problems with this recently. I haven’t ran the boot time scan since Monday. That was clean. MBAM came back clean this afternoon. SAS removed Adware cookies.
i pmed essexbot and told him to check your topic so if i were you i wouldn’t worry,just wait a little
Here I be - just before I went for a cuppa ;D
If you had tibs I will start with a stronger tool than usual
Download ComboFix from one of these locations:
* IMPORTANT !!! Save ComboFix.exe to your Desktop
[*]Disable your AntiVirus and AntiSpyware applications, usually via a right click on the System Tray icon. They may otherwise interfere with our tools
[*]Double click on ComboFix.exe & follow the prompts.
[*]As part of it’s process, ComboFix will check to see if the Microsoft Windows Recovery Console is installed. With malware infections being as they are today, it’s strongly recommended to have this pre-installed on your machine before doing any malware removal. It will allow you to boot up into a special recovery/repair mode that will allow us to more easily help you should your computer have a problem after an attempted removal of malware.
[*]Follow the prompts to allow ComboFix to download and install the Microsoft Windows Recovery Console, and when prompted, agree to the End-User License Agreement to install the Microsoft Windows Recovery Console.
**Please note: If the Microsoft Windows Recovery Console is already installed, ComboFix will continue it’s malware removal procedures.

Once the Microsoft Windows Recovery Console is installed using ComboFix, you should see the following message:

Click on Yes, to continue scanning for malware.
When finished, it shall produce a log for you. Please include the C:\ComboFix.txt in your next reply.

Aaar the scourge of the seven seas m’hearty
I am running the Boot time scan right now. (obviously I’m on a different computer) I will run the Combofix after it gets done. How long does it take to run this?
Thanks!
Ahoy Matey, I be in good hands!
Combofix can take up to 20 minutes - depending on the severity of the infection
hahahah ;D , mis-spelling
I ran the ComboFix.
Everything seems to be back to normal after the ComboFix. I have no messages on my interface, and no redirecting web pages.
Thanks a bunch!
