Adware.180Solutions

OK, so my sister's computer is a vista and was analyzed with norton 360 and malwarebytes.

Malwarebytes has managed to pick up a suspect record, called "Adware.180Solutions.

When google, 'Adware.180Solutions' was the norton database [ http://www.symantec.com/security_response/writeup.jsp?docid=2005-083106-0253-99 ], but he says that this does not affect the panoramas.

In addition to this, someone else, but using windows XP, said that norton antivirus has detected the "Adware.180Solutions' [ http://www.computing.net/answers/security/adware180-solutions/17859.html ]

so, do you have norton 360 does not detect it like it * thinks * it won't infect the system? What should I do? I'd be always concerned and remove it?

EDIT:

Kay, I don't know if this helps, but here's the log from malwarebytes.

OK, you know what, I don't care what is happening to my sister's computer more, his computer can crash and burn for all I care.

but I still want to continue with this question in case this happens to me (can, you never know)

You did a Restore Point? Or export your registry database? Or export the registry keys that
Malwarebytes says it will remove. Maybe make a copy of the text file. Also allows for malwarebytes
a backup and has a newspaper there are a lot of options.

Normally do what Malwarebytes suggests, it's ok, however it never hurts to have a backup plan.

  • Adware? And how to get rid of?

    Since last week when I'm redirected to a game at random navigation site. First of all, I thought it was just something to do with Firefox (the browser I used), but then the same thing happened with other browsers too. I then installed Opera to judge if it would happen again and Yes, it happened. Then I tried to reinstall the whole OS, hoping that would solve the problem. There can be no. I always get redirected to a site "yu0123456". How to get rid of this? I installed AdGuard so it blocks me enter the site, but still not open tabs. After the reset of the operating system (I also erased the hard drive), I did not visit malicious sites. I just downloaded programs I had before that happens again (steam, Spotify, discord). I tried to scan my Mac with Malware Antibytes, but he found nothing. If it's harmless, I could live with that, but it's very irritaring. If there is a chance he could phis my information, so I want that he removed as soon as possible. What can I do?

    Thanks in advance!

    Adware is usually not malicious. Its purpose is to push ads into your face. Adware makers get a fraction of a payment of one hundred whenever an ad is shown. That's their motivation.

    You say wipe you the drive, but if you restored a backup Time Machine or Migration Wizard to restore your applications and the user account, you managed that by copying the problem at the back.

    MalwareBytes for Mac can't catch everything. The adware manufacturers are constantly changing which moved things and which appoints the files have. It's a job without end for manufacturers of MalwareBytes to catalogue these items, so they can be found and removed. But of course he is not hurt anything to use as it can remove a lot of problems for you, leaving only the new elements, unknown to locate and remove manually.

    Depending on where you have steam, Spotify and discord, the installers may have been (and often are) responsible for the installation of adware and you want to install.

  • It is an adware?

    Hi, so I just bought my MacBook yesterday. This is the first time I use the Apple product so I'm still unfamiliar with it.

    Somehow, I got adware which always opens a new tab to ps4ux.com when I open Safari and when he opened the ps4ux.com for the new tab, I can't click anything on the page that I've been open. I had tried use Malwarebytes Anti-malware and erase the files. But it always seems to come back with different names and detected with Malwarebytes I tried to scan a few times after that.

    Is there are still a few adware on these issues or has it cleaned?

    In any case, I'm also somewhat familiar with Adware as well. So I wanted to ask you is a dangerous adware, I mean as dangerous he can 'hacked' your hard drive and things are erased and the things inside (I mean like even when you're not connected, it can still destroy your data), or just a boring advertising popping up whenever you are online (and only when you're connected)?

    Thank you in advance.

    Adware is not dangerous. It's just an annoyance.

    Usually, just just restart Safari with the SHIFT key. You can also delete all the data of the website in Safari > Preferences > Privacy tab. With respect to the software, AdwareMedic is the choice around here. http://www.adwaremedic.com/index.php

    Any version of Thunderbird https://www.mozilla.org/thunderbird/ has been proven to come up with any form of consciousness/malware. It is a topic about it here, on sites forums.mozillazine.org and technicians autour so true with the recent version of TB.

    It may have came with a recent update or install other software and you noticed at some point.

  • Remove (adware) Firefox 38.

    I have a bug that overwrites the data in the Start Page for Firefox 38. There is a link. I really want to get rid of it. Ran Ad-aware, Malware - didn't find it. It only happens in Firefox. Can you help me?

    It is not adware, it's a feature of Firefox that Mozilla uses from time to time.

    It you like it, there are 3 ways to get rid of him.

    The best way to get around that is just to create your own home page and do not use the 'default' on: homepage.
    See - How to set the home page

    You can use this UserStyle - https://userstyles.org/styles/104673/about-home-hide-snippets-and-hide-brand-logo - to hide the two sections of the about: home page House that Mozilla sends messages and videos when they feel the "need".

    Many of us have disabled the changes made to the top [brandLogo part] of the Start Page of Firefox and off advertising "excerpts" [under the reservoir of research] that Mozilla uses all the time now, so we don't see this "thing".

    If you feel adventurous, here's how to 'fix '.
    Type of topic: config in the address bar and press ENTER. Accept the message of 'dragons' to see the Advanced preferences screen. Use the search box at the top to enter the below pref.

    You can assign an empty string to stop your Firefox to retrieve "extracts" and brandLogo changes the browser.aboutHomeSnippets.updateUrl pref. Right-click this pref and select Edit then clear the value as pref in the box that appears, and then click OK. Who will also disable "snippets" that appear under the container of the research on the default home page.

    Then you must open the folder of your profile, via help > Troubleshooting Information > profile folder > > folder view button. Then close Firefox.
    Your profile file open with Firefox closed (Firefox '3-bar' menu key > exit/Quit), wait two minutes, then remove the storage\moz-safe-about + House folder in the profile folder of Firefox to remove the brandLogo and stored in IndexedDB code snippets to make Firefox use the default brandLogo and a defined default code snippet.

    Restart Firefox for these changes to take effect.

    If you later change your mind about these changes, you can reset the pref browser.aboutHomeSnippets.updateUrl via the context menu and Reset to retrieve the default to start to use the storage\moz-chest-fort-about + House record once again.

  • Adware/malware pop up

    Have a Mac Book Pro 13 ", middle of YEAR 2010-2, 4 GHz Intel Core Duo processor - surfing the Internet, received a popup UNEXPECTED/GENERIC-to the RESEARCH (which took over the entire screen) indicating to contact APPLE 1 - 877 - SUPPORT? -???? (don't remember the number) due to adware or malware that infect my book mac pro and DO NOT disable the system?

    I did follow the instructions!  As soon as SAFARI closed, entered into HISTORY - erased from history and proceeded to shut down the system.  Wait 1 minute and restarted the Mac. Went back into the history to make sure that the whole story is allowed, and it was.

    Is it standard practice for APPLE publish information like this when the system is compromised?  OR... a potential problem of piracy?  HELP please.

    Apple does not post information like this.

    It's a scam

    It is a supplement that says you have an infected computer

    and you do not

    You could say that you need more calcium in your diet, or more bacon,

    but this is just a supplement trying to frighten and mislead you.

    If you have not downloaded anything, you can restart Safari with the SHIFT key to erase any residual garbage which may not be there but only for peace of mind.

  • Firefox is still buggy after adware removal

    After removing some adware that I had yesterday, Firefox is still sort of bug.

    I did deep analysis in my records with multiple anti-malware and anti-virus programs. and I uninstalled Firefox, delete old profiles too and make a new clean install.

    However, when you install NoScript and/or Ghostery modules, they do not seem to work.
    I think that this could be caused due to the trace of the malware that I received recently.

    Here are the problems:

    -NoScript 2.6.9.21: the add-on shows no options, instead shows blank spaces. It seems to be blocking any javascript, you will notice how YouTube does not show. (Img #1).
    When disabling the add-on and restart Firefox, all websites with Javascript show again. So the add-on seems to be working, but is is not configurable.

    -Ghostery 5.4.3: does not appear on the sidebar, Ghostery button, and I can't figure out how to make it appear.
    In addition, in the page modules, if I click on settings ghostery, what I get is a blank page. (Img #2)

    I tried to install the Add-ons page of the developer and the Firefox Add-ons page. I even tried with older versions of Add-ons, just to make sure it wasn't a version problem.

    I think I might be missing something, you think that I can do to solve these problems?

    Where you need them, got logs analysis of antivirus and antispyware programs and can post a HJT log.

    Ran anti malicious and entirely software programs loads all files of Firefox (shown here: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Uninstalling_Firefox) manually.

    After a new installation, everything works again allright.

  • Why the current version of firefox installs adware?

    When I downloaded the latest version of firefox it installed adware so that my computer is unusable. I used a previous version on my other computer and I liked it very well why ruin you a very good program.

    You can also check if Firefox has a non-standard connection setting? It's a way to alter apparently valid sites. You can do so here:

    "3-bar" menu button (or tools) > Options > advanced > tab mini network > button "settings".

    The default "use system proxy" should piggyback on your Windows/IE 'LAN' settings. But you can try 'No proxy' to see if that makes a difference.

  • Need help to kill the nasty Firefox virus / adware

    One of the computers in my office has a nasty Firefox virus / adware. Only Firefox is affected, Chrome and IE agree. Get lots of pop-up ads even if pop-up blocking is enabled. Many pictures of non-standard advertising appear on most web pages. Hyperlinks show more pop ups advertising when you hover over some of them. Performance of Firefox is very slow. When I use 'Copy link location' on links and pop-ups, they each have a base URL different - too many to try to block via firewall or virus software. Anti-virus AVG, Malwarebytes scan, AdwCleaner, HitmanPro all come clean. All the Firefox plugins and extensions are disabled. Firefox reset does not solve it. Uninstall/reinstall of Firefox is. CCleaner ran on the files and the registry. None of the suspicious programs appear in the Panel. Ran antivirus, CCleaner, Malwarebytes, AdwCleaner, once again, all in safe mode. No joy.

    Any ideas?

    Thank you

    Rob

    Occasionally, malware can change settings in the Firefox program files. To address this problem:

    Clean reinstall it

    We use this name, but it is not about the deletion of your settings, this is to ensure that program files are clean. As described below, this process does not disrupt your existing settings. Don't uninstall NOT Firefox, that does not need.

    (1) download a fresh Installer for Firefox 37.0 of https://www.mozilla.org/firefox/all/ in an ideal location. (Scroll down your preferred language).

    (2) close Firefox (if applicable).

    (3) to rename the program folder

    (Windows 64-bit folder names)

    C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox
    

    TO

    C:\Program Files (x86)\OldFirefox
    

    (Windows 32-bit folder names)

    C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
    

    TO

    C:\Program Files\OldFirefox
    

    (4) run the installer you downloaded in the #1. It should automatically connect to your existing settings.

    Any difference?

    Note: Some plugins can only exist in this OldFirefox file. If it is missing something essential, present in these files:

    • \OldFirefox\Plugins
    • \OldFirefox\browser\plugins
  • How to remove adware (mystartsearch)

    Hello, I tried several steps to manually remove this adware, but it always appears as my start page.
    -I wasn't able to disable add-ons (he wasn't).
    -I was not able to uninstall it from the control panel (it wasn't).
    -J' ran regedit.exe and manually deleted every line that read "mystartsearch."
    -J' refreshed Firefox and manually set the default start page.
    Not good. It's still there. I also tried to open Internet Explorer and which is also infected.
    What can I do else? Any advice would be really appreciated.

    That appear when you launch a new window (Ctrl + n) instead of your home page, or only when you are using the Firefox shortcut on your desktop or the taskbar?

    Some malware will modify your browser shortcuts. To check that:

    Right click on the shortcut of Firefox > properties > Shortcut tab

    For 64-bit Windows, the 'target' should be either not less the following:

    "C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe"
    

    If everything that follows, be sure to remove it.

    It's the same idea for IE (but I'm not familiar with IE on Windows 8.1)
