I created new firefox profile using Profile Manager, then I copied all files fromt the old profile to the new one. AdwCleaner did not detect any suspicious files in that new profile folder, so I guess I'm good?

Bonsoir

Hello,

Thanks M-K-D-B, sorry for misunderstanding.

@Simplex: Can you zip me the folder "C:\Users\Admin\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\41A66E7E5EE1" and your profile: "4ui6vnjc.Simplex" ? I'll merge the two so that you'll find a clean profile, and you will be able to clean with AdwCleaner the malicious one.

Thanks,

You're right, nice catch! But that really is my main firefox profile. Did malware hacked its name, or what?

c:\Users\Admin\AppData\Local\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\41a66e7e5ee1

It is related to Yondoo browser hijacker, I've seen multiple topics with this variant.

my suggestion:

Hi all.

I googled before asking but never found anything relevant... So AdwCleaner found 1 threat, this is what is says:

Firefox pref Found:  [E:\Profiles\Firefox\prefs.js] - "extensions.quick_start.sd.closeWindowWithLastTab_prev_state" -  false

Anyone knows what this config option does and why is it dangerous?

Thanks.

Hello,

Sorry I was unclear. You can deselect the element "C:\Users\Admin\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\41A66E7E5EE1" from the "Folders", and do a clean.

Best regards,

Thse issuses are in the log every time I do a scan. Either AdwCleaner does not remove them, or I still have some residual malware which puts it back.
