I see those at work all the time, often enough that have a disk created specifically for it that has Malware bytes ( http://www.malwarebytes.org/) and, for the really stuborn ones, combo-fix ( http://www.combofix.org/) on it.
As your first line of defense, run malware bytes repeatedly until it comes back clean. If that does not solve it, I've not met one yet that combofix could not take care. Note that you may have to run them in safe mode since some of the malware will detect it when you run these, and other, recovery tools and virus scanners. |
I like Malwarebytes too. My son in law had a bad one on his computer. At first it wouldn't let me even run Malwarebytes. Had to run it in Safe Mode and then it took care of it.
