[QUOTE="Steve62, post: 427947, member: 40658"] I have removed Chrome and Firefox. While looking through the AppData/Roaming I noticed a .bin file called appdataFr25. Doing a quick search this file is a known adware malware. I have deleted the file. Under AppData\local there is a subdirectory Chromium which has a file called awesomium.log under Chromium\User Data\ which has 12 entries [14976:18012:2045323554:INFO:extension_unpacker.cc(143)] Installing extension C:\Users\...\AppData\Local\Temp\scoped_dir29175\Freemake.Plugin.Chrome.crx [8680:15884:2045323554:INFO:extension_unpacker.cc(143)] Installing extension C:\Users\...\AppData\Local\Temp\scoped_dir25761\Freemake.Plugin.Chrome.crx [13048:13184:2045323570:INFO:extension_unpacker.cc(143)] Installing extension C:\Users\...\AppData\Local\Temp\scoped_dir18292\ChromeYoutubePlugin.crx The remaining entries reference the ChromeYoutubePlugin.crx file There are no bin type files so it looks like left over noise. Thought it might give you a clue. I just found a directory C:\ProgramData\DataFile that has three files in it: DV.exe sysTech.txt Update.xml The .txt file is actually an executable. The xml file contents is: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <temp> <t> <dbUrl>[URL]http://www.winpcoptimizer.com/betaone/updated.php</dbUrl>[/URL] <downloadUrl>ftp://[URL="http://www.gopready.com/httpdocs/BetaOne</downloadUrl>"]www.gopready.com/httpdocs/BetaOne</downloadUrl>[/URL] <fileName>sysTech.txt</fileName> <userId>goprekod</userId> <password>meetravi@123</password> <chkUpdatetimer>00:03:30</chkUpdatetimer> <countUpdate>9</countUpdate> <updateTimer>01:00:00</updateTimer> <messageHeader>SECURITY ALERT!</messageHeader> <messageContent> Error Code 00XB10999.
