| 1429176 | 2016-12-03 02:20:00 | Remember that hijacker I had? Zemana killed it in the end, but beats me WHERE exactly it was, I had nothing in the browser, nothing in all the usuall files, registry etc. Nothing else found it, not even HJT. Still bugs me that I don't know where it hid. |

| 1429180 | 2016-12-03 06:45:00 | looks like you have Reimage on your system malwaretips.com having gone through most of the cleanup steps time to hit it with a bigger hammer If you are using Chrome Browser backup your favorites if need be and get rid of it with Revo,run c-cleaner both cleaner and Registry cleaner afterwards to get rid of any leftovers Download Chrome again and add your backup Ha Ha and this 5nz.com |

| 1429182 | 2016-12-03 09:07:00 | Reimage is a PITA big time, it also brings in all sorts of other rubbish with it. The warnings it puts in are completely fake, designed to panic the person and extract $$ from them. There is another that's doing the rounds as well, similar warnings, usually it locks up your browser, you cant close it normally, even over rides all shortcuts ( like ctrl +F4) to close the window. Only way to get rid of it is open task manager, end task on the browser, then clean out the temp files with Ccleaner, if you don't clean out the temp files it will pop right back instantly you open any browser. |

| 1429184 | 2016-12-03 21:55:00 | I take your web browser is Chrome? ,if you are not using a Ad blocker this is where things like that come from Quickest way is to uninstall Chrome,run those cleaners again them install Chrome again and install the best Ad Blocker for chrome(I don't use chrome so some one else could recommend) |
