Re: Emobilize experience

Hello,

If I can retrieve anything I'll post it up. There was nothing in my adwCleaner folders except a reference to 'Xplode', not sure if that was something to do with anything.

Re: Emobilize experience

Now that the shock is over, it could have been completely un-related to any other event that day, but it was shockingly easy for them to blag me into handing my ...

Springiles / esurf.biz adware

I clicked on a springfiles virus searching for "modensa cot instructions". Doh!

My first clean has the following log. I have cleaned several times since and it says I am clean. But I am still getting lots of redirects and occasional Chrome freezing whilst I am asked to call the Microsoft certified technician.

Thanks in advance.

Re: Cannot get AdwCleaner to work on Windows 10 64bit

Hello, I downloaded a new copy from Bleepingcomputer and ran the program again this morning.

It stayed that way for approximately 5 and one-half minutes and (not responding) showing across the top edge of the program. Suddenly the (not respondi...

Hello,
