Title: Help with removing "You need to update your version of media player"
Post by: lowflyingbs on August 18, 2013, 11:46:00 PM
I haven't been able to stop the "You need to update your version of media player" screen from showing up.  Malwarebytes and avast haven't stopped it.  Any help would be appreciated.  Thank you.

Just do what is shown in the topic "Logs in assist in cleaning malware" at the top of the viruses and worms section
and attach the logs here, dont copy and paste them.

Run in list ordered, after that malware removers will be notified. ;)

How's your computer running now? Any pop-up?

I haven't had any pop ups in almost a week.  They would come at irregular times and sometimes days apart when I had them.  If everything looks good to you I'll assume the problem has been fixed.  Thank you for the help.

NP. ;) If something pops out, please feel free to report here.  :)

I will remove used tools;



Please download  DelFix (http://general-changelog-team.fr/fr/downloads/finish/20-outils-de-xplode/9-delfix) by "Xplode" to your Desktop.

Run the tool and check the following boxes below;

Now click on "Run" button. Wait for the programme completes his work.
All the tools we used should be gone.
Tool will create and open an log report (DelFix.txt)
Note: The report will also be stored on C:\DelFix.txt


> I don't need DelFix log report.


I recommended you to keep Malwarebytes and to use MCShield if you will.
You may download MCShield from one of the following links:

MyCity -  Official download link (http://www.mcshield.net)
Softpedija - Mirror download link (http://www.softpedia.com/get/Antivirus/MCShield.shtml)

It will prevent infection by computer via USB flash drive, mobile phone or any other memory card.
And not only will prevent infection, but it will immediately clean flash drive, memory card or external HDD.


Be safe  ;)
