Can someone help or direct me to the best way or programs to eliminate the go.wvydeo virus?
I have run FarBar recovery scan tool and have the text files but do not know how to create the fixlist?
Thanks,
D

Follow the steps here https://forum.avast.com/index.php?topic=53253.0
Then attach the logs in this thread

I do not know how to complete the fixlist?
I'm on my 5th day of this and I had already run the Malwarebytes and AdWare Cleaner before running FRST.
I have not run aswMBR.exe yet. Do you want be to rerun and post the detailed log results? Or will the attachments I included be OK as is?
Thanks,
Dave

No need for aswmbr now, you should notice a difference after this fix
CAUTION : This fix is only valid for this specific machine, using it on another may break your computer
Open notepad and copy/paste the text in the quotebox below into it:

Hello again,
I think you nailed it! I have attached the logs. Appears to be running OK now. Low CPU usage (was 100%) and memory usage normal. Can you take a look at the logs and let me know your thoughts and any other suggestions?
Your a Prince!
Dave

Let me know when you are happy and I will tidy up :)
-
I want to thank you again for your help. I seem to be OK. Where are you located? Any chance of buying you a beer someday?
-
Only if you ever visit west Cornwall :)
Subject to no further problems :)
I will remove my tools now and give some recommendations, but, I would like you to run for 24 hours or so and come back if you have any problems
Now the best part of the day ----- Your log now appears clean :thumbsup:
A good workman always cleans up after himself so..The following will implement some cleanup procedures as well as reset System Restore points:
Remove tools
Download and run Delfix (http://general-changelog-team.fr/fr/downloads/finish/20-outils-de-xplode/9-delfix)
(https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/73555776/delfix.JPG)
: Keep Java Updated :
WARNING: Java is the #1 exploited program at this time. The Department of Homeland Security recommends that computer users disable Java
See this article (http://www.forbes.com/sites/eliseackerman/2013/01/11/us-department-of-homeland-security-calls-on-computer-users-to-disable-java/)
I would recommend that you completely uninstall Java unless you need it to run an important software.
In that instance I would recommend that you disable Java in your browsers until you need it for that software and then enable it. (See How to diasble Java in your web browser (http://www.geekstogo.com/2600/how-to-disable-java-in-your-web-browser/) and How to unplug Java from the browser (http://krebsonsecurity.com/how-to-unplug-java-from-the-browser/))
If you do need to keep Java then download JavaRa (https://singularlabs.com/software/javara/javara-download/)
Run the programme and select Remove Java Runtime. Uninstall all versions of Java present
Once done then run it again and select Update Java runtime > Download and install Latest version
(https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/73555776/javara.JPG)
Now that you are clean, to help protect your computer in the future I recommend that you get the following free programmes:
CryptoPrevent (http://www.foolishit.com/vb6-projects/cryptoprevent/) install this programme to lock down and prevent crypto ransome ware
(https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/73555776/CryptoPrevent.JPG)
Malwarebytes (http://www.malwarebytes.org/mbam-download.php).
Update and run weekly to keep your system clean
Unchecky (http://unchecky.com/)
Click on the link above to be taken to Unchecky.com
click the very large Download button.
click Save
Click Open folder
Right click on the Unchecky_setup and choose to Run as Administrator
Once open click the Install button.
Then click on Finish
Unchecky is now installed and will help you keep unwanted check boxes unchecked, this is a fire and forget programme ;)
It is critical to have both a firewall and anti virus to protect your system and to keep them updated.

Thanks for your help and list of enhanced security ideas. I have deleted the programs.
No, I will not be in W. Cornwall anytime soon. Sorry but are we talking West Cornwall, Connecticut or West Cornwall, England? I am in Seattle, Washington.

West Cornwall, England :)
