Hi and welcome to the malwaretips.com forums!

I'm Jack and I am going to try to assist you with your problem. Please take note of the below:

• I will start working on your malware issues, this may or may not, solve other issues you have with your machine.
• The fixes are specific to your problem and should only be used for this issue on this machine!
• The process is not instant. Please continue to review my answers until I tell you your machine is clear. Absence of symptoms does not mean that everything is clear.
• If you don't know, stop and ask! Don't keep going on.
• Please reply to this thread. Do not start a new topic.
• Refrain from running self fixes as this will hinder the malware removal process.
• It may prove beneficial if you print of the following instructions or save them to notepad as I post them.

Your security programs may give warnings for some of the tools I will ask you to use. Be assured, any links I give are safe.


Before we start:
Please be aware that removing malware is a potentially hazardous undertaking. I will take care not to knowingly suggest courses of action that might damage your computer. However it is impossible for me to foresee all interactions that may happen between the software on your computer and those we'll use to clear you of infection, and I cannot guarantee the safety of your system. It is possible that we might encounter situations where the only recourse is to re-format and re-install your operating system, or to necessitate you taking your computer to a repair shop.

Because of this, I advise you to backup any personal files and folders before you start.

lots of tr cookies, ads etc on HitMan scan. My biggest problem has still been you tube with sound ads playing over videos and crash altogether. Also msgs about scripts busy or not running and Flash Player not working. Now, I will check these out thoroughly, but wanted to get back to you with logs. Thank you.

 

[kanderberg]

returnedf.com says WARNING !!!
Your Java Version is outdated, have Security Risks.
Please Update Now!
The same java msg. that came up previously was othersa.info They wanted you to go to page to download update version which before all this started I did attempt a download of new version.

If malware bites found nothing could it be due to fact that my 30 day trial has expired?

After running hitman and malware bytes I still have flash player/java crashing playing videos. Can hear but pic is gone.

I did check one vid file that I tried to share on fb before and still says error with publishing then "flash objects must have the 'source' and 'picture' attributes" I think I have had this on one other vid but most share ok. Also have problem with dll on printer. When I try to change options to better quality from a pdf file it says printer dll not found and keeps it at default. When I go to change options on a word doc it lets me change from quick print to better quality. Not sure if I need to reload something from my Lexmark printer?
