I was doing some browsing a few days ago. Then I started getting pop ups even though I use the pop up program from endpopups. I reinstalled it and seconds later.. pop ups again. Then I checked the startup and I noticed a odd program with just 4 random letters and numbers. I removed and restarted and it would come back. I ran ad aware, spy ware, spy doctor, and hijack this. I removed what came up and it still kept poping up and trying to open a random window.
At this point I realized all the pop ups that were coming up are saying the same thing. Talking about stopping ad ware and viruses from messing up my system. Nothing else but pop ups like that.
At this point I just simply do a system restore back 4 days prior. Everything is cool at this point. About a day later it starts happening again. I immediately delete all of the new sites that I had recently ventured to so I won't go back to them. Then I look up the files that keep adding themselves to my startup. They are all 62 kbs in size and all in the windows and windows system32 folder. I go in and manually delete about 20 or so of them. It took a long time to make sure I get them all. I had to do this in safe mode. Then after I restarted, to my surprise here comes the windows trying to open on their own and a new program on my startup again. Another 62kb program!!! What the hell????
Giving up I decide to perform another system restore and Haha to my surprise all of my restore dates are gone. They are gone!
I seriously think some idiot is trying to sell some spyware/virus software and made some problems that only his stuff can fix.
Can anyone help me please?
