[QUOTE="scitus, post: 731838, member: 72009"] Hi, So I recently downloaded a torrent file from a russian website, which of course had a virus come with it. About every 40 minutes a random ad window will pop up in Google Chrome, regardless of Chrome being open or not. I have tried everything I could think of in order to remove the virus. Unfortunately I did not have any success removing the virus which has lead me to post on this forum. I tried several different anti-virus/malware softwares, including Sophos, Malwarebytes, TDSSKiller, HitmanPro, Windows Defender, none of which were able to find any viruses. I hope that any of you are able to help me identify the virus, otherwise I have to reinstall windows. I ran the [URL='http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/download/farbar-recovery-scan-tool/'][B]Farbar Recovery Scan Tool[/B][/URL] and have attached the FRST & Addition files. Thank you, [/QUOTE]
