LaSooch Posted October 25, 2021 ID:1485439 Share Posted October 25, 2021 G'day hope i'm in the right place. I keep getting notifications saying to reactivate various antivirus softwares, which id as clevercaptcha.top. Weird thing is i've downloaded malwarebytes and scanguard and run a full diagnostic with both. They both come up clean, yet I know there's something on my computer because I keep getting all those notifications which I never had before... I've also run the chrome diagnostic and checked in the program/app to see if anything there but nothing. The only thing i found was an unnamed program in the startup apps.. can anyone help please..?

Root Admin AdvancedSetup Posted October 26, 2021 Root Admin ID:1485444 Share Posted October 26, 2021 Let us get some logs please @LaSooch Please download Farbar Recovery Scan Tool and save it to your desktop. Note: You need to run the version compatible with your system. You can check here if you're not sure if your computer is 32-bit or 64-bit Double-click to run it. When the tool opens click Yes to disclaimer. Press the Scan button. It will make a log (FRST.txt) in the same directory the tool is run. Please attach it to your reply. The first time the tool is run, it also makes another log (Addition.txt). Please attach it to your reply as well. Thank you Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks like you hit the nail on the head!! I saw the cleavacaptcha website in the notifications and made the changes. Is it best to leave it there as a blocked site or delete it..? It seems like we caught it as it isn't in MS edge nor is it in another chrome profile that i use. The only symptoms I noticed was at the time it made my screen shake and since then only the push notifications when I open the chrome profile... At this stage all good👍 thx for yr help 🙏👊 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would delete it and block all notifications. I personally block all notifications in all browsers for all of my clients. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
