Ok,
So i decided to try manually removng the detected items: the google chrome preferences, cookies, and web data from AppDate in chrome folder. Once I do this and run adw cleaner, malwarebytes, and hitman pro, i get a FULL clean bill of health, zero items detected.
Now, as SOON and i open up google chrome, do a search, close it, and run all scans again, all malware is back.
So, something seems to be hidden somewhere that has nothing to do with Chrome.
Lost, and don't know what to do.
