Solved Need help to remove Gameharbor.org

[doknami]

I'm not really tech savy so i have no idea how to upload a file scan. If anyone could direct me on how to do that i'd appreciate it. Also, i have downloaded Malwarebytes and am currently running a scan right now.

EDIT: I have figured it out and have uploaded the scans.

Actually, i was instructed elsewhere on how to delete the file from my registry and now i do not have anymore popups. Have restarted a few times to make sure the Gameharbor page no longer pops up. I also installed Malwarebytes for future protection.

Will update with my logs now just for a double check. If anything is wrong with them, do let me know please. I have selected to watch the thread and to receive email updates so i will respond as soon as i am able to.
