loudNlow87 Posted December 12, 2011 Report Share Posted December 12, 2011 My wifes PC just went berserk with all those fake warnings and shit again. I thought I still had one of them free softwares to get rid of them, but I can't find it. I'm pretty sure it was Spybot or something, but it's all froze up and won't let me do a damn thing. Just mass pop ups. Anybody have any free software suggestions? Tips? It's driving me nuts.

Azagtoth502 Posted December 12, 2011 Report Share Posted December 12, 2011 What anti virus you using now? For malware I'd use Malwarebytes.

miniSPLlancer Posted December 12, 2011 Report Share Posted December 12, 2011 If for whatever reason non of the above mentioned work, I would just do a secure wipe of the HDD, it actually writes 0 sectors on the HDD 3 times, hence the name secure wipe. P.S. I use to wipe my HDD every 6 months. Just a cautionary thing. I have a SSD now and basically use intels SSD toolbox, the more you wipe a SSD the slower it becomes Quote 2011 Mitsubishi OutlanderSony 712 Soundqubed HDS208 Alpine MRV-M500 Transmission line enclosure Soundqubed wiring Knu rca XS Power battery CNF terminals Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carshateme Posted December 12, 2011 Report Share Posted December 12, 2011 Try SuperAntiSpyware and MalwareBytes. What is it doing when you download it...or is it no allow any thing to download?....or is it not opening up the program? Quote New build coming soon.

Blackedout Posted December 12, 2011 Report Share Posted December 12, 2011 (edited) You need to figure out what (primary) virus is infecting the system. Google How to remove (Such and such) virus. It will tell you step by step how to remove the main virus. Remove it using the programs recommended in the google search. Run Malwarebytes Quick scan Run MS security Essentials Edited December 12, 2011 by Blackedout Quote Trunk Build Log Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
