Browser hijackers


Recommended Posts

So about a month ago, I got infected with viruses that hijacked my browsers. At first it was a small problem easily fixed by un/reinstalling the browsers and rebooting. But now even after uninstalling the browsers (Chrome and mozilla) there are entire new folders that replace those browsers with their illegitimate counterparts.I end up having both chrome and mozilla (While I clearly have them uninstalled). BUT, the thing that is frightening me is that the MWB scanning finds 0 Threats, even though these folders are clearly fake and aim to harm my pc.(It is considerably slower)

The names of the search engines which have taken over my browsers are:

123startingpage

Luckystarting

Ourluckysites

Searchinme

I should also add that MWB blocks these sites, meaning I can only use the browser by directly inputting the adress in the url

I wouldbe extremely grateful if I were to receive some help.

Thanks for your time.
