Hello,

I have a small problem with this spyware: QUICK SHARE.

I've downloaded quite a few programs and done the necessary scans:

- Malwarebytes Anti-Malware
- a-squared Free
- YAC

I also had:
- CCleaner
- Spybot

Anyway, despite all that I still have this software!
Can anyone finally help me get rid of this thing???

Thanks in advance!

Hi,

Uninstall:
- a-squared Free
- YAC
- Spybot
are useless.

You have installed adwares and potentially unwanted programs on your PC that open ads and slow down the computer and web browsers.
Here’s the procedure to follow to remove them:

Follow the procedure here: https://www.commentcamarche.net/faq/2490-supprimer-les-adwares-publicites-intempestives-pop-up-etc
Provide the AdwCleaner and OTL reports via the mentioned site as requested.

You need to:
1/ Perform an AdwCleaner cleanup and provide the report.
2/ Reset the browsers
3/ Run an OTL scan and provide the report(s).

That's when I got up and left.

Which web browser is your quickstart on?

* Restart OTL.
Copy/paste the script below in bold into the OTL window, at the very bottom, in the Customization section.

I only use Google Chrome; it's just that Quick Share is in my installed programs (it still is, by the way). However, when I try to uninstall it, I get:

"The feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable
Click OK to try again, or enter an alternate path to a folder containing the installation package 'LinkuryInstaller.msi' in the box below";

I've just made the corrections; what should I do now since the problem is still there?
