Delete the following registry entries:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\ CurrentVersion\Run\1535894364295587050450837002573 9
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Antivirus
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curre ntVersion\Run\”Antivirus” = “%ProgramFiles%\Antivirus 2009\Antvrs.exe”
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Antivirus

 

download and install the free malware-bytes anti-malware software.
Malwarebytes.org
update it and run the anti-malware scan
after it's done, go to Free ESET Online Antivirus Scanner and run that scan to pick up any remaining infections.

 

thanks alot guys for the quick responses

 

I looked in my registry and I have none of the files??? , also I cannot download malwarebytes???

 

heres my software registry are any of these viruses???

 

Doesn't look like it, but you're not in the right spot, either.

While in the registry, do a search (F3) for antivirus 2009, and delete those values.

 

This one was a little tough for me. I tried deleting it and all its registry values, but it hid itself under a couple different names in various places. It would always (eventually) come back.

I found malwarebytes last week which worked great. No problems since.

 

Your website redirection/blocking probably has to do with your HOSTS file and it lists IPs or domains and redirects them. Read about it here: Hosts file - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

 

I have a very good antivirus/firewall program, and I couldnt get rid of that ****. After several days I just reformatted, my laptop was running slow lately anyways. I hope whoever wrote that **** gets aids, herpes, chlamydia, and gives it to his mom who bites his **** off and feeds it to him. There should be a death penalty for people who write viruses.

 

I see where everyone says malwarebytes kills it but I can't get it to install or run It's like the virus won't let me use it???

 

have you tried installing and running it in safemode?

Easy as cake to remove.

Go to bleepingcomputer.com and download Combofix.exe. Run it, dont worry about recovery console, just run it. I cleaned 5 computers with it so far without a hitch.

Download MalwareBytes, run that after.

Download Spybot Search and Destroy, immunize your computer and run the scan.

DO ALL THIS IN SAFE MODE.

Install Avast Antivirus.

Done.

 

malwarebytes won't work It wont let me run it, I already have avast antivirus, Ill try those other things though even in safe mode It wont let me run most applications...

 

I am in safe mode but I still can't go to any websites having to do with computers so can someone send me the files for combofix?

 

Just run Linux. Or get a Mac.

Problem solved.

 

My next computer will be a mac or run linux, this **** sucks I still can't get rid of it...
