Thank you, Malwarebytes

[ChicagoMom]

I had been plaqued with the Kovter Trojan for weeks.

Windows Defender kept quarantining it. Two full scans; two different times would not find it. Full House Call scan did not find it.

Yesterday I found a blog that suggested downloading/installing Malwarebytes, turning off WiFi, booting in Safe mode, then running Malwarebytes.

YAY!!!!  VOILÁ ... GONE. 

I am not a PC expert by any means. I was ready to go out and buy a new PC to get rid of this Trojan. Now I am SO HAPPY ... knowing I could fix this with the help Malwarebytes. 

Thank you Malwarebytes for a product that even a novice can use.

Hello, that they are so happy with Malwarebytes. But you can never be sure if your PC is really clean, maybe there's more on it... Do this too.

You are kidding me, or that was only an April Fool for me and us.

I am new to this Forum and I do not recognize who MAM is but I am so thrilled to have figured out how to remove the Trojan from my PC ... I just wanted to say Thank You.

And no, it was not an April Fool's joke.

@ChicagoMom - thanks for taking the time to post about your experience. We're glad Malwarebytes for Windows worked for you!

I meant that you should have your computer examined properly.

That was only a hint.
