    Okay i am officially hacked, any suggestions?

    I've tried:
    Spybot
    Hitman Pro 3.5
    Super Antispyware
    Ad aware

    I have Norton 360 Installed.

    It's still there and everytime i click on a website through google search it redirects me to advertisements or sites with trojans (detected by norton :rolleyes2:)

    If all else fails I guess I will have to wipe the drive and fresh install.

    EDIT: seems like tdskiller did it in, lets hope it stays that way.

    thanks bro im pretty sure you've learned many things about viruses searching for those damn pokemon.
     
  7. did you find out what kinda bugs were on your computer? cause it can be vital.... like data gathering of saved passwords/logins/form data...... basically a bug searching your browsers saved data....... and possibly sending it somewhere....

    not to get you paranoid or anything..... but it definitely is something to think about.
     
  8. i would wipe the HDD clean to be safe.

    well i only use this computer for download and forums plus one messenger and that is the only thing that i even put my name on lol. i guess its a tds trojan or whatever and its one of those that keeps on replicating itself even if you delete it and comeback disguised as a different file. i deleted an instance of it with hitman pro or whatever, it disappeared. restart then the shit just came back. but after the tds killer app from kaspersky i don't seem to get redirected anymore. I might reformat but too lazy wonder if shit could spread to my external drives cause it seems none of my antivirus/firewalls/spyware detectors could prevent it.

    EDIT: malwarebytes still found this: Trojan.FakeAlert but no desktop popups except from norton.
