[QUOTE="13GMAF20, post: 291639, member: 30154"] I am at my wits' end with recurring adware on my PC. I have been perusing the Internet for suggestions and recommendations on how to purge from my computer the adware associated with the eDeals extension or the PirritSuggestor extension. I've had this problem off-and-on for the past few months; every time I think I've successfully rid myself of the adware, it comes back again in another form and is harder to find. I've tried uninstalling the program (named "SweetPacks") from my computer, but the ads continued. I updated Microsoft Security Essentials and ran a full scan, which deleted some malwares but then the ads returned. I then installed Malwarebytes and ran a full scan, but it detected no threats. I went into the registry and deleted any of the folders that other websites suggested were part of the eDeals extension; that didn't work, either. Resetting FF didn't help. (I currently run the 33.0.2 version.) I just installed FRST; the FRST.txt and Addition.txt files are attached for consideration. Please help!! [/QUOTE]
