URL:Mal alerts with Firefox and Chrome again - please help!
« on: January 18, 2014, 10:09:12 PM »
Dear All,

Same topic again - Firefox and Chrome initiate Malware alerts with nearly any newly opened page. Surprisingly this does not occur with IE, at least for the first couple of pages I opened.

Following advice, I used the MBAM and removed over 100 detected dangers. This did not seem to have any positive effect. Then, I used the OLT and did the scan.

Attached please find the requested logs.

Thank you in advance for your kind assistance.

Please download Farbar Recovery Scan Tool by Farbar and save it to your desktop.

Note: You need to run the version compatibale with your system. If you are not sure which version applies to your system download both of them and try to run them.
Only one of them will run on your system, that will be the right version.


  • Double-click to run it. When the tool opens click Yes to disclaimer.
  • Under Optional Scan ensure "List BCD" and "Driver MD5" are ticked.
  • Press Scan button.
  • It will make a log (FRST.txt) in the same directory the tool is run. Please attach it to your reply.
  • The first time the tool is run, it makes also another log (Addition.txt). Please attach it to your reply.
