Search nu? Norton Sucks? etc

[leeannmariew]

I can't seem to get rid of this "search nu" malware? I run scans on Norton, Panda, Malware Bytes Anti, Spyware Detector.. but that leads to my known resources being exhausted.

If anyone could offer some help getting rid of this before it does any damage to my computer. I have been having performance issues lately

Thanks!

Welcome to the forum.

Please download AdwCleaner from here and save it on your Desktop.

AdwCleaner is a reliable removal tool for Adware, Foistware, toolbars and potentially unwanted programs.

AdwCleaner is a tool that deletes :

· Adwares (software ads)

· PUP/LPI (Potentially Undesirable Program)

· Toolbars

· Hijacker (Hijack of the browser's homepage)

It works with a Search and Deletion methode. It can be easily uninstalled using the "Uninstall" mode.

1. Right-click on adwcleaner.exe and select Run As Administrator (for XP just double click) to launch the application.
   
2. Now click on the Search tab.
   
3. Please post the contents of the log-file created in your next post.
   

Note: The log can also be located at C:\ >> AdwCleaner[XX].txt >> XX <-- Denotes the number of times the application has been ran, so in this should be something like R1.

Please look over what was found, we're going to delete it all in the next step....if there's something you may want to keep...please let me know and I'll explain to why it shouldn't be on your system.

Lots of adware found....lets clear it out.....

1. Please re-run AdwCleaner
   
2. Click on Delete button.
   
3. Confirm each time with OK if asked.
   
4. Your computer will be rebooted automatically. A text file will open after the restart. Please post the content of that logfile in your reply.
   

Note: You can find the logfile at C:\AdwCleaner[sn].txt as well - n is the order number.
