Hey, I have a problem, I accidently downloaded a spyware program which i didnt know was spyware, I downloaded 3wplayer.. then realized it was a spyware, so I removed it, but I think its added something else to my pc. Ever since I installed it, I have been having these problems, some sites wont allow me to log in, simple reloads the page without logging in, also if i google something like, norton for example, i click on the link in google for the norton home page, but instead of going to nortons home page, i get routed to a differernt site, like a differnt search engine or a porn site, or whatnot, it doesnt matter what i look up, i could look up dogs and instead of going to the site i click on, it goes to something new, Ive scanned my pc in both regular and safe mode and nothing is found. Ive restored my pc to an earlier time and nothing helps. Ive used Norton and Ad-Aware. Neither find any problems, does anyone have any ideas as to helpin me find my issue? thanks in advance!
Thanks guys , I cant pick a best answer because some of you gave me the same link advice lol, so to be fair i gave you guys a thumbs up
Ill let the public choose a best answer, also thanks for the Spybot S&D idea. I downloaded it and it found 28 problems. After removing all of them, my internet works, sites that were messed up now log in. And Im not going to throw my pc out the window now haha.Thanks a bunch for the help ![]()
BTW I didnt have a Trojan , I had a TagAsaurus and other adware/malware




I had a cursed trojan on my laptop like last month. I’m getting mad all over again. I had it wiped clean, but I read that trojans are extremely difficult to remove completely. I was thinking about Norton, but I was able to download a free 90 day trial of a program called Windows Live One Care It found some stuff that was apparently still on my computer, it seems to be really good. And the trial is free, I have not had any problems since.
Install “Spybot” and run it often. It’s free, they only ask for donations. It helped me well so that I actually sent them a donation.
Try the steps in the following link. http://www. bleepingcomputer. com/forums/topic34773. html
1st Run the online Panda ActiveScan, it will scan your computer and remove most infections. http://www. pandasecurity. com/homeusers/solutions/activescan/2. Download, update and run the free version of super anti-spyware. It’s relatively unknown, but it catches a lot of spyware that the other software miss. http://superantispyware. com / 3 Make sure that your Norton and AdAware are up-to-date. If not, update them and then run full system scans. 4th In future, do not download unknown software. These are some sites where you can loads of free and safe software: http://filehippo. com / http: / / download. com / http: / / softpedia. com /:)
I would either reformat my computer or use ad-aware Which is a really good program for removing spyware trojans, etc. Download it of download. com (Provided by CNET). Download. com is the only website i know which is safe and you can download good software such as these.
Either Norton or Adaware should have picked up the virus if you’ve been getting regular updates. System restore will not remove any malware once it’s on you computer. Try to download Spybot Search and Destroy, and run a scan with that. Otherwise you may have to call in a computer tech to remove it for you.
I think you have a multipart trojan hijacker. And I’m guessing is only my first opinionSpybot search and destroy 5HijackThis first 99th One from major geeks. comSentinel second 2nd 0 from MajorGeeks. comCCleaner. comi hope this has been of help to you.
You have been infected with a trojan 100% when your infected with it, it’s blocking you from accesing to some of the web-sites in order for you could not get a anti spyware it slows down you’re pc performance in a half sometimes it opens web browsers by it self my Adwise is for you to get a “McAfee Security Center” i am using it myself and it never fail’s
Try to backup your important files and data. . . then format your whole hard disk. . . and install a fresh copy of Windows or Linux. . .
scan with TrendMicro.
SUPERAntiSpyware would probably be the best. Once i had on my system Trojes and this program took EVERYTHING out if it and it is as if i never had a virus Good Luck!] Http://www. SUPERAntiSpyware. com / index. html
