Most stubborn Malware/ Adware- TOTAL AD PERFORMANCE (ad-type.google)
« on: August 09, 2015, 01:21:11 PM »
My HP laptops browsers & Android Browsers got infected first . Chrome was badly hit by pop ups on almost every click.
 Any site redirects automatically to the URL starting from ad-type.google.com and then redirecting to Total Ad Performance.com.

I cleaned all extensions from chrome, blocked pop ups, checked all necessary steps to stop these pop us, deleted cache cookies etc. , No useless software or toolbar.

Added Ad Block Plus to Chrome,Scanned with Malware bytes & Avast Security.
As of now i'm a bit relieved as less pop ups are coming but once in 5 min a pop up from Total ad performance comes and avast blocks it as Malware.

But my android Xiaomi Mi3 is badly hit. Chrome ,mozilla , local native Browser ,UC Browser all are getting pop ups at every click.
Finally i decided to factory reset my device (it took guts as i wasted 3 hours in backup and reinstalling)
But still still still even after hard reset  browsers had pop ups.
Please suggest me what to do. Im really scared

Thank you
Sagar

Every time redirects to different ads.
Opens by some URL like dis-

 http://ad-type.google.comhttp://ad-type.google.com/sh.aspx?f=popup-u&h=c8d5ad7d804ba49015d1b83443fbc54d

Then redirects to

http://www.totaladperformance.com/a/display.php?r=425636   


and then comes ads
