i downloaded a file and then ten minutes later i cant go on a any website becasue a fake warning from internet explorer(even though i use chrome, fail) saying that its stoppping me becasue the site has malware and directs me to a website selling anti-virus software and thats the only site i can go on. Then i realised my own anti-virus software had ran out, so im fucked.

Its basicly trying to force me to buy anti-virus software which is propably a scam also.

Please help

if you have a 2nd computer, and I guess you do, you are on here. Google: malwarebytes anti-malware and put it on the computer with the virus.

It's free, and kicks the hell out of any virus.

google for "hijackthis" and generate a hijackthis log file via the hijackthis program

then paste the log file to hijackthis . de

from there you will see what are malware items from the list

check it and click fix checked button

then delete all the malware files

works everytime

you might also need to check your IE if it's proxy settings was changed (tools > internet options > connections tab > lan settings (make sure everything is unchecked)) this redirects all your websites to the malware bec. it's using the malware's proxies. you need to uncheck all.

use a software called combofix, it has taken all the malware shit off of my computer many times and never failed me. this is the place to download it from http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/download/anti-virus/combofix

combofix and malwarebytes, install them and run them both in safe mode, should take care of it. If not let us know.

Picked up something nasty on my PC a few months ago, running Windows 7 I wasn't able to use ComboFix (which I normally use) - hope they can improve the Beta and release a stable version.

@OP - MalwareBytes and SUPERAntiSpyware did the job
