Hey! Same problem with me for about a month out of the blue. Tried to scan the whole pc with all types of scans, even the bios one, but no virus was found, which could lead to these pop-ups. Important to mention, that “imonews” is trying to do some harm through powershell, since avast blocking it as well. As I checked, it’s trying to add some kind of code in powershell, but as I mentioned, the avast blocks these actions. Another thing, when “imonews” pop-up occours - “Extension” folder is created automatically in local disc C:, which adds a fake “Google Docs” extension to Chrome. Tried to delete the “Extension” folder, scan Google Chrome, reinstall it, but no changes. Pop-ups are still occurring everyday. What is happening??? As I checked, a lot of people started to get these pop-ups recently from nowhere, so It’s hard to believe that multiple users could’ve got infected with the same and unrecognized virus due to their carelessness.
Sending how these folders look:
