Urgent Chrome Update Browser Hijack
goldeneagle replied to goldeneagle's topic in Resolved Malware Removal Logs
Ok, I have completed the steps above... Fixlog from running FRST fix is attached. MBAM version 3 scan found no issues. Results log is attached as "MB3 Scan Results.txt". AdwCleaner also found no issues. With no issues, it did not prompt me to complete the steps below. So, no restart was required and no log appeared. I have purposely not been browsing the web until this issue could be resolved. I will browse today and post if any issues noted. Thank you for your continued help! Fixlog.txt MB3 Scan Results.txt -

Urgent Chrome Update Browser Hijack

Hi kevinf80! Thank you so much for your help! Both log files are attached. FRST.txt Addition.txt -
I use Chrome exclusively as my PC browser. Over the last week my browser randomly redirects to a suspicious page saying "Urgent Chrome Update". I do not notice any files downloading from this page. I have Norton Security Suite installed and running on my Windows 7 PC. I have ran Malwarebytes, Adwcleaner, and Avast Browser Cleanup. None of these programs find malware or issues, but the redirects continue. Please help me to remove this malware and secure my PC.

Ok, I completed the ComboFix scan & reran FRST. Logs are attached. I think ComboFix wiped out the FRST file on my desktop. I had to download it again to run today. I enabled Norton after the ComboFix scan & FRST rerun. While I was uploading the files to finish this post, Norton Auto-Protect detected and removed a security risk Suspicious.Cloud.7.EP. Pic of Norton log is attached. This is related to ComboFix - is this ok? ComboFix.txt FRST.txt Addition.txt

TwinHeadedEagle, the Adobe Flash update redirects resumed tonight. It happened while I was on Pinterest clicking on a link. I clicked on the link a 2nd time to see if it would do it again, and it did. Chrome goes to the correct website for just a second. I can then see the browser redirecting through about 10+ addresses quickly in the bottom left of the browser window. It ends on the Adobe Flash update page and automatically downloads the same "Installation.exe" file I've been seeing every time. Norton immediately flagged and removed the file both times. I tried the same link a 3rd time. Redirects started, but I was able to hit the stop loading button on the browser to stop the redirects and view the webpage I wanted. This thing is driving me crazy!
