I am using Windows 8 on my PC. When I go online I am getting adult popups on my PC web pages. Whatever I click or whatever I do, this pop up keeps on coming and mostly on every new page or site, sometimes in the middle of the website but mostly on the right side. This virus also blocks my internet many a times a day and is making my PC extremely slow. I was earlier using AVG antivirus but after these popup coming I switched to anti-malware and avg internet security. But AVG was not able to detect it, but anti-malware is able to detect it sometimes and it shows it as Trojen.DNSchanger malware/virus but is not able to delete it. It only quantries it but it is still coming up. It is shown somewhere in registry files.

Then I installed MS antivirus and Kaspersky internet security after removing avg. But both are not able to find it and it keeps on coming. I also tried other anti malwares like spyboot, nortan power erazer but all in vain.

So till now I have used AVG Internet Security, Kaspersky internet security, Anti-malwarebytes, MS antivirus and malware removal, Spyboot4, Norton power erazer, housecall, adwcleaner, junkware removal tool but all have failed to remove this Trojan.

I am enclosing snaps of the pop up and a copy of my installed softwares on my PC.

Pls help. popup.jpg1.jpg2.jpg

Use AdBlock Plus 2.6.8 Add-on in the firefox browser.

Use adblock (and it isn't same as adblock+ ) extension in chrome. Also set all plugins to Click to play instead of the default Play All

All Attachments are visible to me though...

If you are using Chrome then no attachment will be visible as I am using Waterfox 64bit browser...

Thks for your quick replies.

I have installed adblock and will update if it is stopped. But this virus is also blocking my internet and it should be removed in order to keep my online activity safe.

So what method should be used to erase this virus from my PC.

I just opened my IE and after putting the site add, my www changed to adult.....info/ and an adult site opened. SO the virus is present in PC and I have to remove it.

Install malwarebytes, and scan the system.

It has also come up in firefox too after the installation of adblock.

I already have antimalwarebytes on my pc and it is able to detect it but is unable to cure it.

Boot into safe mode and do a complete scan using 360 Total Security (lightweight and fast), Avira, avast or any other antivirus.

Post a screenshot of the programs in startup tab in CCleaner.

I now installed avast premier and did bootup scan but it didnot revealed anything. Then i scanned the pc with antispywarebytes and it quantried the virus.

But now my pc internet has been blocked by the virus and I know this as the another pc connected with same modem is running internet fully.

I am trying to use the system restore to start the internet again as this virus changes the DNS settings. Is there any other method to start the internet again after malware byte removes the DNS files?

Attachments working for me.. Using chrome here..

As for the issue, using malwarebytes can you find the source of this virus??

Did you try booting into safe mode? :|

just format the C drive.after that reinstall windows & this time install a good AV first(i recommend avira free or 360TS),update it & then scan entire pc.do not install anything else until then.btw just for future reference preventing viruses,malwares etc is far more easier than removing them.

P.S.i don't think such sophisticated malware relies on usual startup entries.i would use sysinternal tools to(process explorer & autoruns) to look for any suspicious dll or exe file at startup.

Don't you think formatting and reinstalling should be the last option? I've removed similar kinds of viruses and trojans from friends' laptops by booting into safe mode only.

it depends on the person.i always recommend a format if good AVs can not remove something in normal mode because i don't want to take chances.

Try hitman pro, and it's always recommended to run such a tool in safe mode for best results.

I did a system restore & chkdsk and now my internet is working. I will now check with antivirus in safe mode & reply back.

If i remove the virus in safe mode will my internet settings change or not as when I remove this virus in normal mode is shutting down my internet.

Just remove it in safe mode. It'll not change anything else. Safe mode is built for that purpose. :|

If the popup is coming in browsers, uninstall it and then reinstall again while resetting everything to default.
Give a screenshot of the processes and services tabs in Task manager.

I have uninstalled and installed many browsers since this virus has infected my PC, but it automatically finds the new browser and infects it too.

I tried to use combofix software for removing the virus and its report is given below:

Download Teamviewer and configure it. And give it full admin access too. I'll try to remotely diagnose your PC.

You do have a stable 512 kbps unlimited connection right?

I am using Windows 8 on my PC. When I go online I am getting adult popups on my PC web pages. Whatever I click or whatever I do, this pop up keeps on coming and mostly on every new page or site, sometimes in the middle of the website but mostly on the right side. This virus also blocks my internet many a times a day and is making my PC extremely slow. I was earlier using AVG antivirus but after these popup coming I switched to anti-malware and avg internet security. But AVG was not able to detect it, but anti-malware is able to detect it sometimes and it shows it as Trojen.DNSchanger malware/virus but is not able to delete it. It only quantries it but it is still coming up. It is shown somewhere in registry files.

Then I installed MS antivirus and Kaspersky internet security after removing avg. But both are not able to find it and it keeps on coming. I also tried other anti malwares like spyboot, nortan power erazer but all in vain.

So till now I have used AVG Internet Security, Kaspersky internet security, Anti-malwarebytes, MS antivirus and malware removal, Spyboot4, Norton power erazer, housecall, adwcleaner, junkware removal tool but all have failed to remove this Trojan.

I am enclosing snaps of the pop up and a copy of my installed softwares on my PC.

Pls help.

Okay. So all problem is with virus...
I think that virus came from those pop-ups and infected everything on your computer...

now one thing..
uninstall every security/antivirus software you have already installed... and install this 360 Total Security free version... from here.. link below..

*free.360totalsecurity.com/totalsecurity/360TS_Setup_6.0.0.1154.exe

After installation do these things...
1. Click on "Virus Scan". Enable antivirus engine, image circled below. Avira and Bitdefender antivirus engine download and enable it.
*www.360totalsecurity.com/images/22eea003567563214fa1dccf8b5b68db4d436f73/features/ts/virus_scan-en.png

2. Now click on "Protection", then on "Configure", then select protection mode "Custom" and enable Every available protection, like "Privacy, Internet and System Protection"
*www.360totalsecurity.com/images/289a5b2c5f41e3c33e00cf1f57834e83c4e89ac6/features/ts/protection-en.png

3. After these settings done. click on "Virus Scan". Run "Full Scan". After full scan remove those virus. (but remember that step 1 of enabling antivirus engines of Avira & Bitdefender).

4. After this you can download & install "ublock" addon/extention for firefox/chrome browser..
Link below. According to your browser select link...
*addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/ublock/
*chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/ublock/cjpalhdlnbpafiamejdnhcphjbkeiagm

If you find everything difficult just message me. for more help. I can solve your problem remotely using TeamViewer etc etc :)

So what did you do? And why was Avast not detecting this?

Most probably a browser extension which was a fake adblock. Removed every fake and updated the actual one. Then did cleanup using CCleaner.
I didn't find anything else wrong with his system.

which why you should install trusted add on and install no script , disable java [ mother of all exploits], i have addblock edge, no script , request policy , ghostry, ublock, and disconnect and no anti virus installed for last 7 years on windows , you yourself are best AV , have a good hardware firewall and never ever just click on links you don't trust.

^ put all this in understandable words... well said... there are people who never use antivirus/security like "me" :p and remove viruses by themselves like me :p

Currently I am using Avast antivirus Free version, is the above antivirus better than that and is there any software / application like adblock for Internet Explorer too ?

360 is better than any free software available.. and gives protection like paid software like (bitdefender, avira, kaspersky...)
more guidance/info can be asked here...
*www.digit.in/forum/software-q/138653-antivirus-guide-user-reviews.html

No for internet explorer there is nothing.. I don't use internet explorer.. You can get adblock plus or ublock on firefox, Chrome... they are really good browser..
or try new best of all browser... Vivaldi

Stick to only a single adblock for chrome which I updated on your PC. Don't use multiple adblocks for a single browser.

There was an adblock for IE too. I used it for IE, before i switch to Chrome.

Currently I am using Avast antivirus Free version, is the above antivirus better than that and is there any software / application like adblock for Internet Explorer too ?

No for internet explorer there is nothing.. I don't use internet explorer.. You can get adblock plus or ublock on firefox, Chrome... they are really good browser..
or try new best of all browser...

adblockplus.org

Open this in IE.

All this "PUP" stuff can't be avoided by ad blockers in 99% of the case but your "sensible browsing" would surely do.

Plus no AV can protect against it because they grow much faster than AVs' update process. AdwCleaner + Mbam + Hitman pro (on demand scan) should be your best bet.

Have been dealing with it on daily basis as part of my job; damn nasty internet marketing.

PS: Find more info regarding PUPs' removal on bleepingcomputers.com.
