Popup Removal Help
« on: March 17, 2013, 08:33:28 PM »
Hello!  I'd greatly appreciate any help in removing a Chitka popup, and one other that I'm not sure how to identify. (It usually says "Please install flashplayer HD to continue.")

Here are the steps I have taken:

1. Ran AdwCleaner and selected Delete

2. Ran Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware

3. Ran OTL

4. Ran  aswMBR.exe

I will attach the logs in the next posts.  I'm not getting the popups as frequently, but they haven't been totally eliminated.

Thanks in advance!

yes....exept that you did not update malwarebytes  before you scanned
you dont have to post a new..... and quick scan is enough to find any active malware   ;)

Let me know if this cures it

Warning This fix is only relevant for this system and no other, using on another computer may cause problems

Be advised that when the fix commences it will shut down all running processes and you may lose the desktop and icons, they will return on reboot

Run OTL
  • Under the Custom Scans/Fixes box at the bottom, paste in the following


Code: [Select]
:OTL
O3 - HKCU\..\Toolbar\WebBrowser: (no name) - {2318C2B1-4965-11D4-9B18-009027A5CD4F} - No CLSID value found.
O3 - HKCU\..\Toolbar\WebBrowser: (no name) - {604BC32A-9680-40D1-9AC6-E06B23A1BA4C} - No CLSID value found.

:Commands
[resethosts]
[emptytemp]
[CREATERESTOREPOINT]
[Reboot]
  • Then click the Run Fix button at the top
  • Let the program run unhindered, reboot the PC when it is done
  • Open OTL again and click the Quick Scan button. Post the log it produces in your next reply.
