[Annoying omnibox How To Remove]

Hi

 

Thank you for your help.

 

I have looked at the Internet Explorer Properties and in the "Target" box I noticed that it had the address on Internet Explorer as well as Omniboxes.  Have deleted Omniboxes.  All seems to be well now.  No annoying hijacked browser!!!

 

I can't believe that all the scans I carried out including MalWareBytes didn't disclose this.  I wonder if MalwareBytes are aware of this shortcoming in their program.

 

Regards

I wonder MrC

 

Would the problem be solved if I completely uninstall IE 11 and the re-install???

[Annoying omnibox How To Remove]

Hi

 

One more thing.

 

I closed down my IE  browser just now and re-started it.  I got the Omniboxes search screen but when I pressed on "Intenet Options" and looked at the home page address it is now Google and it is the only one showing in the box.

 

Yet still Omniboxes seems to come up!!!!!!!!!!

[Annoying omnibox How To Remove]

Hi

 

Have carried out the Internet Explorer reset as suggested.

 

I also re-ran the AdWare Cleaner which showed nothing suspicious this time.

 

I did the right click on IE shortcut as you suggested and ( I assume this is the shortcut in my Favourites) and opened up Google properties.  Under Documents screen it only showed GOOGLE url  and Nothing in the shortcuts box.

 

I applied that and started IE again and still got Omniboxes as my default search screen. Not google

 

This is getting to be a big nuisance and it is unbelievable that with all that I have tried we still can't get rid of it.

Hi

 

AVG - is an antivirus program that I used a long while ago before I started using Avast.  As I said, I thought I got rid of it all when I did an uninstall.  A run through my Registry does not show anything either.

 

I will try your latest suggestion when I come back from walking the dogs.

Hi MrC

 

As requested, two files.  You did ask for FRST(64).txt but the only file produced was FRST.txt  -  why is that?

 

One thing I noticed, not that it has anything to do with the current problem,  was that there was some mention of AVG file.  This was an ativirus I used to use a long time ago and I thought I had got rid of anything to do with it but obviously not.

[Annoying omnibox How To Remove]

Hi MrC

 

Have attached the files as requested

 

What a performance to get rid of Omnibox which sadly is still there as my browser in IE

 

If I click on Google in my “Favourites” it does change the browser screen and then I alter it to  Google in Internet Options but it does not stay that way for the next session when I start IE again.

 

I have followed you instruction to the letter apart from  RougeKiller which as you know will not get past 25% and also stopped working.

 

The last MalwareBytes scan was Ok with no threats found.

 

If you could a way of getting rid of this problem I would appreciate any help you can give.  I can’t believe that after all that it is still so stubborn.

 

Like you dogs by the way!!

Hi

 

I have run the programs as suggested and attach 

The Malware scan log

FRST test log

Addition.txt log

I did try RougKiller again but again it stopped working at about 25%

 

I hope this is correct but if not please let me know and I look forward to your suggestions.  Omnibox is becoming a pit of a pain in the proverbial  now.

[Annoying omnibox How To Remove]

As I thought.

 

I have almost carried out your instructions and got to scanning with RougeKiller.

 

It gets to 25% at file C:windows\system32\drivers and then crashes. 

 

Any ideas as to why?

 

I have windows 7 64bit installed

Avast Antivirus

Comodo Firewall

 

The FRST ran OK and report saved

Mr Charlie

 

Thanks for getting back to me so quickly.

 

I try what you suggest and then get back to you.

 

Just one thing though, are you able to comment on my question about being concerned about over 1000 problems the Spyhunter found and why Malwarebytes hasn't.

 

Regards

[Annoying omnibox How To Remove]

Hi Guys

 

I seem to have got Omnibox onto my computer and every time I start Internet Explorer up it shows Omnibox as the search engine.  I replace it with Google but the next time I start IE Omnibox is there again.  I have been all through the registry and deleted anything to do with Omnibox but to no avail.

 

Running Malwarebytes doesn't even get rid of it.

 

I have just found a program called Spyware Hunter v4 which is supposed to do the job.

 

When I download the program and run it all is well and it gets to 96% competed after about 15 seconds which is where it stays.

 

It has found over 1000 problems though, which I just can't believe are problems as Surely Malwarebytes would have found them wouldn't it?

 

Should I be concerned about these alleged problems or what????

 

I was under the impression also that it was a freeware program but that is not the case.  It seems that to get rid of any problems you have to pay to register first.

 

Firstly, is this program a con or what.

 

Secondly,  Why won't Malwarebytes get rid of Omnibox.

 

Thirdly, Can anyone help me resolve the problem and get rid of it.

 

Any help would be appreciated.

 

Regards

[Omnibox?]

Hi Guys

 

It seems I have Omnibox on my computer which has also Hijacked my browser.

 

I did a scan with Malwarebytes and it believe it or not found over 90 PUP's which have found their way onto the computer since the last scan yesterday.

 

I  deleted the program responsible and did another scan and it showed clean.  Connected to the internet again and Malwarebox was still their as my browser instead of Google.  If I replace Omnibox with Google but then re-boot Internet Omnibox is there again.

 

How do I get rid of it once and for all??

[How Remove Unwanted Items all At once]

Hi Guys

 

I am sorry, I have asked this question before but can't find the answer again.

 

I have just done a full scan and found over 400 unwanted items.  All of them PUP's

 

I cant seem to find where I can delete them all at the same time instead of having to tick all of them individually prior to clicking removal button.

 

Can anyone remind me please.

 

Many thanks

[SCAN FOUND 116 PUPs - why]

Hi gringo_pr

 

Sorry for not getting back to you.  I have been away for a couple of days.

 

I did do what you have suggested.  I have done three scans since then and not PUP's so all seems to be OK.

 

What I can't understand is, why so many PUP's showed up between me doing a scan one day and then another scan the next.  It has never happened before and I do regular scans with Malwarebytes.

 

What "Tools" are you referring to in your email?

 

Once again, thanks for your help. 

 

Regards

[SCAN FOUND 116 PUPs - why]

Hi

 

daledoc1 - since your email seemed to suggest that I would be better of getting response from one of Malwares helpers if it was fresh, I have re-entered it.  I also have updated the version as you suggested.  I have since your email, quarantined the entries and all seems to be ok.   I did another full scan afterwards and nothing was picked up.   But I would like to know what it was all about and why it happened.  I am using Avenquest anti-virus and Comodo firewall.

 

I have just done three scans on the computer with Malwarebytes and at has thrown up a number of PUP's

 

13 in the first scan - 66 in the second scan - 166 in the third scan.

 

Whats happening????

 

When the scan finishes it lists the results but none of the items are ticked for removal.

If I want to delete all of them, I cannot see a button which allows me to tick all in one go.  Surely I don't have to tick them all one by one manually!!

I read somewhere that these results are not serious but do I need to start panicking??

 

I have attached a log file of the last scan for anyone who can help me.

[Scan found 116 PUP's why]

Hi

 

I have just done three scans on the computer with Malwarebytes and at has thrown up a number of PUP's

 

13 in the first scan - 66 in the second scan - 166 in the third scan.

 

Whats happening????

 

When the scan finishes it lists the results but none of the items are ticked for removal.

If I want to delete all of them, I cannot see a button which allows me to tick all in one go.  Surely I don't have to tick them all one by one manually!!

I read somewhere that these results are not serious but do I need to start panicking??

 

I have attached a log file of the last scan for anyone who can help me.

 

many thanks

 

Regards

[Can't start MalwareBytes or delete It]

Hi

Due to a recent problem with my computer, I now find that I am unable to start MalwareBytes. If I click on the Programme's icon on the desktop I get a message "Runtime Error 5

I have tried going into Control Panel>Uninstal to get rid of it so that I can re-instal and start again but I am unable to do so.

I get a message come up "Internal Error Cannot find UtCopiled code record for this version of the Uninstaller"

Can anyone offer any help/solution to the problem please.

It would be great if I could completely get rid of the programme and start again.

Regards

DV
