Something nasty remains

Recommended Posts

I downloaded a poker game from tucows yesterday. ActionPoker.

It was an installer. I ran microsoft security essentials. It found nothing. I ran the software, it downloaded another program. I saved it. I ran it. It installed some sort of optimizer program, NOT poker!

 

I ran Maleware bytes. It found PUP.xxx  and 2 other malicious files. I quarantined them.

I ran Microsoft sec ess. it found nothing.

 

My broswer acts funny now. I keep getting a window open asking me if my computer is running slow. It identifies me as a shaw communications user.(my service provider) and a tel number that Shaw tells me is not theirs.

 

Malware bytes finds nothing. Microsoft sec essentials finds nothing. Malware bytes rootkit tool finds nothing. I ran RKill before running them again... nothing.

I reset firefox. the problem still happens. I uninstalled firefox and then re-installed, the problem still happens. The problem also shows up when I run IExplorer so it has affected BOTH my browsers.

 

I am running in safe mode, after disconnecting my E drive from the system to protect my data.

 

I am attaching the 2 files to this post from the FARBAR program and using my other computer to access the internet from now on.

 

Can you help me detect the remaining malware?

I think I got it all off my system. I found "Interesting solutions" InstaShare  had been installed yesterday, the same day I tried to install the poker game. I removed it, which also got rid of a strangely named folder LIUCJQTA  and QmYJtH.exe and assorted files.

If I have trouble I'll drop in and report.
