Yontoo 2.053 refuses to uninstall

[joefromswindon]

Hi,

 

I have been doing a clean up of my laptop, but I have come across one program called Yontoo 2.053. After a quick google, I established it was malware, but when I tried to uninstall it via the control panel, it just came up with an error "Setup initialization error".

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

 

Many thanks

Hi there,

my name is Marius and I will be assisting you with your Malware related problems.

Before we move on, please read the following points carefully.

• First, read my instructions completely. If there is anything that you do not understand kindly ask before proceeding.
• Perform everything in the correct order. Sometimes one step requires the previous one.
• If you have any problems while you are follow my instructions, Stop there and tell me the exact nature of your problem.
• Do not run any other scans without instruction or Add/ Remove Software unless I tell you to do so. This would change the output of our tools and could be confusing for me.
• Post all Logfiles as a reply rather than as an attachment unless I specifically ask you. If you can not post all logfiles in one reply, feel free to use more posts.
• If I don't hear from you within 3 days from this initial or any subsequent post, then this thread will be closed.
• Stay with me. I will give you some advice about prevention after the cleanup process. Absence of symptoms does not always mean the computer is clean.
• My first language is not english. So please do not use slang or idioms. It could be hard for me to read. Thanks for your understanding.

Scan with adwCleaner

Please download AdwCleaner to your desktop.

• Run adwcleaner.exe.
• Hit delete.
• When the run is finished, it will open up a text file.
• Please post its contents within your next reply.
• You´ll find the log file at C:\AdwCleaner[s1].txt also.

Are you still facing the yontoo issue or is it gone?

[joefromswindon]

It has gone! 

 

I can't believe it was that easy! Thank you very much for your help. Do you know how it got onto my laptop in the first place? I have AVG anti-virus, and it's usually pretty good at blocking malware. Is there anything I can do to help keep my laptop safe?

 

Many thanks

adwCleaner uninstall

Launch adwcleaner.exe and hit delete - answer the question with yes.

Reading Material

How to protect yourself

• System Updates

  Beeing up to date is very important. Please be sure to activate automatic updates in your control panel.

  Windows XP | Windows Vista |

  Windows 7 | windows 8

• Protection

  What you need is one (not more) good virus scanner with backgroud protection. Additionally I recommend a special malwarescanner that you run from time to time.

  Personally I am using the avast! Antivirus Free Edition and Malwarebytes Anti-Malware. They offer you good protection for free use. But please remember: You get only the full protection if you use the payed versions of your security software.

• Up to date Software

  Stay up to date with all the programs you use. Some of those really have to have an eye on are: your browser(s) including add-ons and plug-ins, Java, Flash Player, your virus scanner, and basically every software you use often. These link may help you to check:

  • Secunia Online Software Inspector - Checks if your software has updates available.
  • Filehippo Update Checkere - This tool also scans your computer for outdated software.
  • Mozilla: Check your plugins - The webpage will tell you if you have outdated plugins in your Firefox browser.
• Backups

  There are chances for an emergency every day. So be prepared. Back up your data on a regular basis. If you burn it to DVDs from time to time, use a cloud-drive or a professional network backup system is your choice.

• Brains

  It's no joke! You really need one of those things. It is very important not just to click anywhere it is colored or flashing while you surfing on the web. Do not click an OK button on any popping window without reading what it says. While installing software always choose the custom mode, read what those windows says and uncheck adware that will be installed along the software you want.
