Download, Install, Update then Run:


http://www.malwarebytes.org/ (Save any logs, you may need them later).

and

http://www.superantispyware.com/ (Again, save logs, if any).

Both free versions will catch most malware infections.


Update your antivirus of choice and run it. For me, it's AVG free.

Make sure you have a proper firewall installed. If you're using Windows, don't rely on Windows Firewall, it leaks. Important if you have a malware infection. Use whatever you prefer, I use ZoneAlarm free.

Depending on the infection, you may have trouble installing or updating some security tools. Some will block updates or switching on a firewall. One I had refused to let me install Microsoft Security Essentials.

If you still have problems, visit this site and follow their instructions: http://forums.maddoktor2.com/index.php?showtopic=9590 (They will probably request logs if you post and ask for advice, so make sure you've saved them from the scans you run).

If you are offered advice and guidance, stick with it and Don't cross post the same problem to different boards/forums.. all this does is confuse the issues and wastes peoples time.


Good luck!

I've used spybot for 6 years- its very good- its free, but they ask for a donation- its really up to you how much- download is free- its a the best one on the web, in my opinion- lonelybob- p.s.-try it, you'll like it- you can find free, safest download on www.softpedia.com under windows program link.smokinsmokin smokin smokin smokin smokin smokin
