Hello!

My PC is infected with Adware.Elex but there are no pop-ups, no ads, no alternate search engine. Malwarebytes keeps finding it, after deleting it when I launch a browser and scan again it keeps finding it, is like a never ending loop. I've used many different tools. Please help!

Hello,


Please download Farbar Recovery Scan Tool and save it to your desktop.

Note: You need to run the version compatible with your system. If you are not sure which version applies to your system download both of them and try to run them.
Only one of them will run on your system, that will be the right version.


  • Double-click to run it. When the tool opens click Yes to disclaimer.
  • Press Scan button.

  • It will make a log (FRST.txt) in the same directory the tool is run. Please attach it to your reply.
  • The first time the tool is run, it makes also another log (Addition.txt). Please attach it to your reply.
