    "Antispyware virus soft"

    There is something has been downloaded automatically onto my system just last night. It seems "official", and refuses to launch the Norton or Malwarebytes because they are "infected", and then redirects me to the website (avtviruspower dot com, if it is better to know) to buy their "Antispyware virus soft" software.

    I don't have the information regarding the procedure to find out the name of this malware, or how to sort out this problem, or anything like, specially because it would not address me to open specific applications.

    Reboot your computer to start in the safe mode with networking and it can be performed using the F8 n your keyboard .. Now, log into with the user name and try Malwarebytes again. If it does not move feasible then you need to try this and then retry Malwarebytes.

    You have to download the exeHelper .
    Double-click onto the downloaded exeHelper and launch the fix.
    A black window would come up,Use any key to get exit once the fix got finished .

    You have to finish the downloading of malwarebytes and perform the installation of the same. It would not allow you to open this up but that is expected.Then after reboot your system and switch this to safe mode( I presume you are sure about the procedure, if not continue issuing F8 while it is restarting). Launch the malwarebytes and select to go for quick scan. After that just wait until the scan got finished and display up the results. Then get rid of entire infected files and reboot the same again. that should do it.

    This works and if you need to know about the procedure because I just did this 50 minutes ago..

    Is Norton back and functioning? You have to perform two more things here . Move to the Start menu =>Control Panel=>Internet Options=>Within the Browsing History, just click onto the Delete and from the next screen,just be sure that the first four are checked then click on the OK button .

    Then after move to the Start menu =>Computer=>Right Click on the "C:" and launch the Disk Cleanup. That should get rid of any temp files which may be left over. If you still have any confusions regarding this then feel free to ask.
