snap.feed.do

I’m following the instructions in this thread:
https://forum.avast.com/index.php?topic=53253.0

I’m using Chrome.
When I use the “seach web for” feature … Chrome always goes to snap.feed.do

do you have the rest of the logs?

Malwarebytes
OTL
aswMBR

Hi Pondas

yes. I’m doing them now

ty for the reply.

OTL log

aswMBR.exe log

i don’t have any of the other problems mentioned so I guess I don’t need to do the other scans??

  • hard drive infection and are no longer able to see your files/folders/start menu
  • internet connection problems or firewall problems, or have a sirfef (consrv.dll infection)
  • cannot Boot the computer

I appreciate the clear instructions … especially the screen shots.

ty essexboy,

log generated when the computer restarted

AND log generated after running quick scan again

i’ve now deleted the listing of snap.feed.do from the list of Search Engines/default search settings.

I’ve tested the “search google for” function … and it now works perfectly.

tyvm for your time Pondus and EssexBoy.

I appreciate your service.

Our pleasure, run OTL and hit the cleanup button to remove the programme

i followed all of your instructions, including the final run of OTL.

tyvm once again.
