windows explorer keeps opening new windows windows 10

If anyone can help me with this, I'd really appreciate this!! I am desperate! This is probably getting to be a cliche statement around here, but. I have never used Hijack This, but I did confirm that I've got the latest version. (I just got a pop-up for while typing this long-winded description. I normally use Firefox, but the pop-up windows occur both in new Firefox tabs and new IE windows. Still getting pop-ups for recording TV on the internet, and fake antivirus ads.Įver since getting Spy Sweeper, I'm seeing messages for other trojans as well, but all troubles seem to arise when I'm browsing the internet. I've also tried manually deleting any files created in the last month in my Temporary Internet Files folder, and disconnecting from the internet during cleaning attempts. I also tried running FixVundo.exe, VundoFix.exe, ComboFix.exe, but none worked. I disabled file sharing, & auto restore, and tried the instructions at Norton's website for manually removing these trojans after making a backup of my registry. After removing them, it would recommend restarting again, but they'd come back with new.

Spy Sweeper 5.3 (downloaded latest definitions)Īt one point, Norton was detecting both vundo and duntek trojans after restart. Norton Antivirus 2006 (downloaded latest definitions) I've been virus-free for years, and this is the first time I haven't been able to figure out how to fix it.

My computer is infected with a series of trojans that cause Internet Explorer/Firefox to open new windows/tabs.
