  1. Also, when i open farbar, i get a popup saying "Failed to update (1)". I can click ok and use the application as normal though. This was freshly downloaded today and it has always given me this error from what i can remember.
  2. Hi thanks for the fixlist, however i do not wish to delete my browser history or the reading list/bookmarks. And if you reset the network settings, does that mean i will have to reconfigure my internet connection from scratch? i'd like to avoid doing that because i had quite a few issues setting it up, currently i mobile tether my wifi to my PC.
  3. Yes i have deleted cache and cleaned up as well as i could. I don't see how this is going to change the malware scan though, it didn't show anything before and it won't show anything now.
  4. I use the guest user on chrome and not any accounts. I do have gmail accounts but i never login. The last time i logged into one was october the 12th and i never sync so even if that particular account did contain some kind of adware, it wouldn't affect me due to no sync taking place. I deleted my cache just now to see if it makes a difference.
  5. And it seems to only occur when my computer is locked or inactive for a certain number of time which causes the adware to open such links. What i can try is remove/delete my chrome cache, leave my computer idle and see if it happens, this way we can know if it has something to do with the cache like maurice thought so in the original thread.
  6. When i leave my computer idle, i lock it and go away for a short while, maybe 30 minutes, i come back and shopping link is open, sometimes more than once. The most recent one was this: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08HCS5CWF/ref=as_li_qf_asin_il_tl?ie=UTF8&tag=isaver04-20&creative=9325&linkCode=as2&creativeASIN=B08HCS5CWF&linkId=dde2db2a2791c279afba9b23660f7d72 It's usually an amazon shopping link for a product but i think once there was another website besides amazon, but that was back when i made the original thread. Google chrome was left open. When i made the original thread, it used to happen with firefox but since it came back, it happens with chrome. I come back to my computer and a shopping link like the one above is open and i am 100% sure i didn't open it because i'm not american and don't use that version of amazon anyways, it's for sure some kind of adware type of malware that is doing it but i can't find out where it's coming from.
  7. No it's not a business computer, all those profile accounts were created by me for something i'd rather not get into right now. What errors and how do i fix them? the scans didn't bring anything up so i am certain the adware or whatever it may be is still on my computer. And yes it's an old computer but i cannot afford to upgrade and this is sufficient for what i need it for, atleast it was before the memory usage issue started occurring since yesterday. If i recall my original thread, maurice thought it was due to cache? but it seems that didn't do the trick as i have the same "infection/adware" again now and it won't show up on any malware removal software.
  8. My CPu usage is 1-2%, sometimes spikes but is really low and my memory is really high.
  9. Hello, thanks for your reply. I have another issue that started yesterday. A more serious one. My computer seems to be stuck at a high % of memory being used and is very unresponsive. When i check task manager, the memory usage is around 35-39% even if i close all current applications open. This started yesterday night and my computer becomes unresponsive often. It's very slow and i was barely able to open chrome and upload these files. I don't know what could have caused it as i didn't make any changes yesterday. I really need help on fixing this as i can't use my computer if this isn't fixed immediately. My cpu usage is near 0 but memory 35-39% yet it feels like my memory is 90% because my computer is unresponsive and takes minutes to perform a single action and sometimes just crashes so i have to manually close the file/application through task manager. I'm trying to open malwarebytes but it's unresponsive and not opening, but if i recall the scan had no detections found when i did it a few days ago.

  10. Hi i had the same problem and created a thread earlier this year but lost access to my email and account and the issue has come back. Previous thread: So a few days ago the same thing happened, i locked my computer and was away for an hour and come back and an amazon link is open and i am 100% sure i didn't open it, it's malware/adware that i have had before and i recall maurice telling me it was removed but seems it wasn't removed and was dormant on my PC. Please help me clean this infection, thank you.
