Hello,

When I browse the internet, I keep getting ads from dating sites that pop up. I've deleted the history, cookies, and run scans with CCleaner and Malwarebytes, but nothing changes... What should I do?

Best regards

Antoine

    Hi,

    Follow this tutorial https://www.malekal.com/adwcleaner-supprimer-virus-adwares-pup/?t=33839&start= AdwCleaner (by Xplode) on your desktop.
    Go to the link, download AdwCleaner as instructed.
    Launch AdwCleaner, click on [Scan].
    The scan may take several minutes, please be patient.
    Once the scan is completed, click on [Clean]

    Once the cleaning is done, a report will open. Copy/paste the contents of the report in your next reply by copying/pasting.
    If that doesn't work, use the site http://pjjoint.malekal.com to host the report, provide the link to the report in a new message.

    Note: The report is also saved under C:\AdwCleaner[S1].txt

    then the list of extensions:
    ==============================

    What browser do you use to surf?

    If Firefox and/or Chrome are installed:

    On Firefox: Tools Menu / Add-ons
    Extensions tab.
    Provide the list.

    On Google Chrome: Menu at the top right then Tools / Extensions
    Provide the list.

    And finally a HijackThis scan:
    ================================

    - Download https://sourceforge.net/projects/hjt/ to your desktop.
    - To run HijackThis:
    * On Vista/Seven right-click and select run as administrator to launch it
    * On XP a simple double-click is enough
    - Generate a report by following these instructions:
    - Run it and click on Do a scan and save log file.
    - The report opens in Notepad
    - Save it on your desktop
    - Send it to http://pjjoint.malekal.com
    - Provide the pjjoint link here.
