Ok. It was a strange behaviour (and the first case like this) but it's solved.

Otherwise, your computer is clean.

Bonjour,

C'est désormais sûr, il n'y a pas d'infection sur ton PC, juste comme tu le disais, deux petits restes inutile : un dossier vide, une clé de registre perdu... Mais rien qui pourrait avoir un tel comportement.

Ton problème n'est donc pas d'origine infectieuse, mais viens certainement de quelque chose qui s'est cassé dans la configuration de Windows. Il ne s'agit visiblement pas d'un d...

Re: Adwcleaner 5.112 and Google Chrome 50.0.2661.75 m (latest version)

Hello,

In v5.111, "Chrome" tab had been removed because now there is an option "Reset Chrome preferences". Prior to this version, you should manually select entries that you wanted to remove inside Chrome preferences files, and this was not as...

Re: smartnewtab.com

Hi,

You are right, we could have invest about what was creating those pop-ups. In fact a search on the registry with the url of the pop-ups could have worked since a great part of the IE configuration is set under HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer.

We will do that next time !

 

Some recommendations, as Internet Explorer is not really consider as the safer web browser, I...
