DealNoDeal virus

[Halcyon]

I recently installed something that gave me malware, I've uninstalled it and any malicious programs that it put on my PC, I've also run a scan with Malwarebytes several times to quarentine the threat, ran AdwCleaner and CCleaner and HitmanPro as well.

After all of this, only one threat remains that keeps installing the DealNoDeal extension onto Google Chrome, making a single file in the same place with the same name each time.

I've attached the two logs from Farbar Recovery tool.

I've attached screenshots of the extension in Chrome, as well as the threat that has been quarentined and deleted several times.

Helllo,

My name is Argus and and I will be helping you with your computer problems.

• Instructions that I give are for your system only!
• Please do not run any tools until requested ! The reason for this is so I know what is going on with the machine at any time. Some programs can interfere with others and hamper the recovery process.
• Please perform all steps in the order received. If you can't understand something don't hesitate to ask.
• Again I would like to remind you to make no further changes to your computer unless I direct you to do so. I will not be able to help you if you do not follow my instructions.

Fix with Farbar Recovery Scan Tool

This fix was created for this user for use on that particular machine.
Running it on another one may cause damage and render the system unstable.

Download attached fixlist.txt file and save it to the Desktop:

Both files, FRST and fixlist.txt have to be in the same location or the fix will not work!

• Right-click on icon and select Run as Administrator to start the tool.
  (XP users click run after receipt of Windows Security Warning - Open File).
• Press the Fix button just once and wait.
• If for some reason the tool needs a restart, please make sure you let the system restart normally. After that let the tool complete its run.
• When finished FRST will generate a log on the Desktop, called Fixlog.txt.
  

Please attach it to your reply.

How is the situation now?

[Halcyon]

Should I just try running Malwarebytes again and see if it shows up?

[_argus]

Can....

[Halcyon]

Sorry, I don't know what you mean. I don't want to run anything without being told incase I mess something up..

[_argus]

Run Malwarebytes!

[Halcyon]

I've scanned and it has detected the threat again, so I've quarentined it. I won't be sure it will come back until tomorrow so I'll post again with the results.

[Halcyon]

I've scanned again today and Malwarebytes has picked up the same threat.
