Hello, sorry for my bad English, I'm Portuguese! :D

So, a week ago I was getting a bunch of pop-ups on Google Chrome what was not normal, after that, I saw two COM Surrogate but I thought it was normal, after like three days I start to get worried about the pop-ups and I remembered the two COM Surrogate in the task manager, searched on the internet and I saw that it is a Trojan malware located in the System32.

I tried some stuff but nothing did work.

Could you please help me?
Thanks!

Hello,


Please download Zemana AntiMalware and save it to your Desktop.
  • Install the program and once the installation is complete it will start automatically.
  • Without changing any options, press Scan to begin.
  • After the short scan is finished, if threats are detected press Next to remove them.
Note: If restart is required to finish the cleaning process, you should click Reboot. If reboot isn't required, please restart your computer manually.
  • Open Zemana AntiMalware again.
  • Click on

Both files, FRST and fixlist.txt have to be in the same location or the fix will not work!

    Run as Administrator to start the tool.
    (XP users click run after receipt of Windows Security Warning - Open File).
  • Press the Fix button just once and wait.
  • If for some reason the tool needs a restart, please make sure you let the system restart normally. After that let the tool complete its run.
  • When finishes FRST will generate a log on the Desktop, called Fixlog.txt.

Please attach it to your reply.

So, whenever I open the Process Explorer the two COM Surrogate disappears from the task manager. I don't know what it does, but I think its the cause of the pop-ups that I'm still getting on Google Chrome
