Hi,

I had some unwanted popups the other day and seemed to remove them.

As AdwCleaner is recommended for adware/pups, I thought I'd try it out to see if Malwarebytes found everything.

The scan itself was quick, but the removing part took longer, and when it got to the end it crashed (screen went wonky and discoloured, my disabled avira taskbar icon had a big red x through it) and restarted. ...

Hello,

Fortunately, I kept backups of CCleaner's registry deletions, some of which are clearly nothing to do with this adware:

MBAM later found StartGo123, which had been hijacking Chrome.

I imagine the malware writers reading our conversation and learning too, but HTH.

It's not really clear, but IOBit is usually considered as PUP, so you can remove them, especially if you do not have installed the software yourself.
