------------------------------------------------
From what I can tell this malware is at Least a year old. (looking in public forums - i dont mean a year on my computer)
I can't think of any reason why Malwarebytes (which i pay for) hasn't provided a fix for it within Multiple updates. Per forum its been mentioned to MB prior.
I found a post in here somewhere from about a year ago providing a fix, but it's probably over 50 steps (beyond any malware fix I've seen, pretty absurd)...and since it was a year ago... I'd REeeeeeeally like to think the MB team has a better solution to remedy this...at least for paying customers.
Please advise.
