My Vista running laptop seems to have developed a recalcitrant mind of its own ..... and it's driving me mental !! :scribe: :h?: :storm:
I am plagued by some sort of unwelcome mal /'adware', such that most pages are unusable ..... :-C
Data allowance disappears at a frightening rate (100's of MB), while the pages and computer sit there locked up .... usually with a 'long script running' notification window at the bottom.
Is there any way of finding out the details of these scripts so that I can target them better?
I also get (in order of annoyance) unwanted
* google adservices ads
* double click ads
* new tabs opening when I click on a post, that briefly show something like "tedir.com" before switching to any number of ad pages
* data sucking ads top and bottom which freeze the scroll cursor and page, with something like "sin1.g.adnxs....." shown in the bottom window when you hover over them.
I have followed the 4 steps on "malwaretips.com" to try and rid the system of unwanted nasties http://malwaretips.com/blogs/ib-adnxs-popup-virus/
with no lasting joy - it did get up and flying for a short time - (first time through they did find a few undesireables and nuked them, and the data drain seems to have slowed) -- but now they're back just as bad as ever.
What are the ramifications of following step 5 ??
I've even tried running concurrent scans of Malwarebytes Anti-malware, Hitman Pro, and Microsoft Security Essentials ...... with the nasties still remaining hidden |=(|
They seem to be slippery little suckers!
Any help greatly, greatly appreciated ! :t: |:d|
