Hi. I am new to these forums and I am doing my best to follow the posting and rule guidelines.
Right, so this has been persisting for about 2 weeks or so now. While I’m browsing websites with Google Chrome that would normally be considered safe (i.e. Deviantart, scrolling through google images results), sometimes I get the following warnings:
https://puu.sh/xqyZN/c837c97d01.png
This has confused me greatly because I have not experienced any other symptoms such as crashes, redirections, etc. I have ran scans with the following software and found no results:
AVAST Free AV: both a fulltime scan while in windows and a boottime scan
MBAM: both in and out of safe mode with the rootkit detection option checked
HitmanPro: both in and out of safe mode
Adwcleaner: both in and out of safe mode
Super Anti Spyware Free Edition: both in and out of safe mode.
TDSSKiller: Both in and out of safe mode
There is no particular consistency in how I receive such URL:Mal warnings; I had gone a week without receiving any which was after I had done a system restore to a previous date where I did not have this issue. I have also not noticed unusual network usage this entire time. Any help would be greatly appreciated as I’m simply confused and concerned.
Follow instructions and attach FRST diagnostic logs >> https://forum.avast.com/index.php?topic=194892.0
Here they are
mbam log is missing
I did not ask for it
as said in his post, he run it and nothing was detected
Malware experts are notified, they may not be online before tomorrow
MBAM: both[b] in and out of safe mode[/b] with the rootkit detection option checkedFor your info, MBAM is not designed to be run in safe mode, it will run but all drivers are not loaded so will run crippled. Also safe mode does not give any detection advantage, in fact it may be worse, what it may give is better removal of some stubborn malware [b]if[/b] detected
Oh interesting, I did not know that.
I guess I just didn’t wanna leave any stones unturned because whatever this is it has me greatly confused. On Bleepingcomputer’s forum I was told to not worry about it but that really wasn’t a good enough of an answer for me.
