I believe I have a virus that is deeply hidden. It blocks the auto updates on both avast and windows defender. I manually downloaded the updated files and installed and still can't detect whatever it is.
I've run Malwarebytes, Avast (regular scan and boot-time), spybot, super anti-spyware, and have followed pretty much every advice I've seen online in an attempt to clear this. Another symptom is random pages come up when I go to sites as well as when I go to some sites I get redirected. I've done everything in both safe mode and regular. Whatever it is, I can't find it and it's driving me insane. I've gone through my registry looking for anything that seems out of place as well as my system.32 folder, system folder, and program folder. I've checked my msconfig. I've done pretty much all I can and need someone better versed at this than me. I would just reinstall windows, but I have programs on this computer that take 2 days+ to download and I'd rather not have to reinstall them. Any help at all on this would be greatly appreciated.
