[QUOTE="Diinamic_FOOL, post: 163659, member: 19010"] Hello MalwareTips forum, I was browsing (on Google Chrome) a few days ago and I found some weird ads on safe and secure websites. I checked my extension library and I found that the company (Tiger Savings) displaying the ads was one of my extensions. I did some research into Tiger Savings and I found that it is quite the nasty program. While doing so I was running scans, I found out that I had a whole lot more than just Tiger Savings. I found MalwareTips and I followed their guide on how to uninstall Tiger Savings, (Tiger Savings had made itself undeletable on Chrome) used all of the steps (I could not find it in my registry therefore I could not delete that file). I hard uninstalled Chrome using Revo Uninstaller, then reinstalled it hoping that it was deleted. Tiger Savings along with Mixi Dj, Snapdo, Conduit Toolbar, 2o7, ad.yeildmanager, adbrite, Tool:Win32/AngryScan.A, Trojan:VBS/Agent.K, adserver, Adtech, Advert, Advertising, Adware.TigerSavings, Akamai, Atlas DMT, Atwola, Burst Media, CasaleMedia, DoubleClick, FastClick, Media, PointRoll, ProMarket, PUP.BenchUpdater, Qksrv, QuestionMarket, Serving-sys, Statcounter, Yontoo Layers and ZEDO.com. Quite the comprehensive list. I found all of this with SpyHunter 4, and my other scanning programs did not find half of this. I did think my computer was safe, I never visited questionable sites, I was always careful with installing things (although in hindsight I did not always select manual install on programs), and I had Microsoft Security Essentials running (I ran a scan with it and it did not find anything wrong If you can help great, I am considering taking my computer to a computer shop to get fixed, although if possible I would like to do it myself. Windows 7 operating system. Malware Programs: Malwarebytes anti-malware software, AdwCleaner, SpyHunter 4, Microsoft Security Essentials, HitMan Pro, Revo Uninstaller and Smart Defrag 3. Note: AdwCleaner, Hitman Pro, Revo Uninstaller, SpyHunter 4 were all installed after I found the infection. [/QUOTE]
