Hello there,
I hope someone could point me in the right direction… but please be patient as I’m not exactly the most tech savy bloke in the world.
3/4 days ago I got the Total Security virus.
It would appear that I’ve now got rid of this issue using the guidelines posted on other threads - Malware bytes & Spyware doctor.
Unfortunately I am still infected with some nasty which keeps making avast send up multiple “Suspicious Message” pop-ups. Generally these happen in bursts of 20 warnings.
I have run the following but none have seems to get rid of the problem:-
Spyware Doctor - Full scan & Intelli Scan
Malwarebytes - Full Scan
Backlight Rootkit Eliminator
I have run a hijack this logo, results as follows:-
