Remove virus
January 28th, 2020
the image is not showing on my side for some reason so just in case. the picture shows that when i visit w-bb it randomly picks a word and im able to scroll to it and it will show an ad. im pretty much seeing ads everywhere that i never used to see them.
If i were you, i’d just go ahead and do a reinstall rather than manually try and get every last bit of spyware out and then try to repair the damage – atleast that way you can be assured of a fresh start
if you use FF. GO into your addon manager to see if anything is installed there. Happen to me once. Some damn addon was installed and it showed me ads everywhere.
For the image you have to update it to a image host then get the link and post it.
It’s something attached to your browser. Simple way to test is try another browser. Uninstall the browser plus any toolbars, go through programs and delete any spam programs, use Ccleaner to rid any empty registry entries and cookies. Scan again with Hitman. Reinstall browser.
If it persists, you still have a virus. Full OS reinstall is probably best.
Upload the image to.. www.wbb-img.com
or
http://imgflash.com/
The site you used is not allowed.
I had the exact same problem… It was a two part virus which I got rid off by deleting the add-on and then using the antivirus tool combofix… http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/download/combofix/
If I opened the browser after deleting the add-on and before running combofix the add-on would reinstall.. Therefore remove add-on, then run combofix and that should fix your problem..
Have a look at your list of installed programs too as sometimes toolbars and the like get installed there.
+1 for combofix….Heavy duty stuff if you need it!
Use ‘ccleaner’ to check for add-ons on your browser and misc programs that you don’t want on your computer,
and if anything is particularly hard to remove, get ‘revo uninstaller’ to get rid of remaining.
run your anti-virus before and after you do the above, just to be sure
