A few pop-ups have been coming up on a computer of mine, all wanting me to use this anti-virus stuff because my computer supposedly has the Trojan virus. After a while when I open up windows, it starts creating new tabs all with blank pages. How can I get rid of it myself?

Answer:
Well, if you are getting pop-ups you have adware. Adware stands for ADvertising supported softWARE and its responsible for annoying pop-ups and website redirection to suspicious / dangerous / fraud / porn websites. This time it obviously wants you to buy a rogue malware program that will only do further damage to your system. Tools that will remove it : ♣ Malwarebytes AntiMalware ♣ SUPERAntiSpyware ♣ Spyware Terminator ♣ Windows Defender ♣ Ad-Aware SE ♣ Spybot Search & Destroy ♣ HijackThis I`d give special attention to the first 3 programs listed. SUPER has an extensive scanning, it scans everything. Every bit. Spyware Terminator & Windows Defender are known for their aggression when removing and HijackThis is extremely useful for removing their registry entries. When everything else fails, HijackThis might solve the problem. Especially if combined with ComboFix. However that tool is not advised to novice computer users. How to set/configure SUPERAntiSpyware : http://www.ecuhq.com/tested-programs-how-to-use-f32/superantispyware-how-to-use-t121.htm HijackThis is able to remove malicious registry entries. Pretty useful for final cleaning.

Click Start / Accessories / System Tools / System Restore 2. Look on the left and click on : “System Restore Settings” 3. Check a box, at : “Turn off System Restore on all drives” 4. Click Apply / Yes / Ok 5. Click Start / Accessories / System Tools / System Restore 6. Click Yes 7. Uncheck that box 8. Apply / Ok My post should solve all your problems. Hope it helped.

Some. You might have the sasser blaster worm. Download, install, update and scan your computer with both Malwarebytes and SuperantiSpyware, delete anything they find, if this fails to completely remove the virus/spyware download then update Avast and run a boot scan (click schedule boot-time scan and restart your PC), all the software below is free and safe to use. Malwarebytes: http://www.malwarebytes.org/mbam.php SuperantiSpyware: http://www.superantispyware.com/download… Avast Anti-Virus: http://www.avast.com/eng/avast_4_home.ht… To protect your PC in the future you’ll need to install anti-virus software and a firewall, id recommend using Avast and Comodo Pro firewall both are very effective and completely free, you should also switch to Firefox 3 if you are browsing with IE as its much safer and a lot easier to use. (links on my profile) If you are unable to download the above software then its likely you are being redirected or blocked from downloading security software by a trojan hidden in your device manager follow the instructions below and you should be able to download Malwarebytes and SuperantiSpyware which will remove your virus. start > run > type: devmgmt.msc > enter > view > show hidden devices > non-plug and play drivers > in the list of drivers look for the following, right click and disable any that appear in your list: TDSSserv.sys TDSSxyz.sys where xyz are random characters Clbdriver.sys, Gaopdxserv.sys, Seneka or Seneka.sys Restart computer. Remember never download anything thats recommend by a pop-up.

All the anti-viruses ive tried have been installed, but when they get to the update section (which you need an internet connection, which i have, the virus blocks it. So the update scan, the virus eliminator, and all forms of virus removal don’t work. And it’s the same thing with all anti-virus programs. So now the virus is in control, it takes ages just to get on the internet, it blocks all my games, and nothing works properly. Help???
