Hey I need help with a virus I have tried pretty much everything I can think of to get rid of this thing. Every time I open up a webpage in Google a new window or tab will open up on my computer with some random website popping up that isn't anything related to what I am searching for. I have tried scanning with AVG which has found some but not all of it. When I open up Internet Explorer I get an win32/cryptor virus warning... Any ideas? Thanks

Try using malwarebytes antmalware from Malwarebytes.org. Update and run a FULLSCAN. That should remove any infection you have

Downloaded and installed that prgram Went to run it and my computer wouldn't open it, keeps coming up with The Program has stopped working Please Check online for a solution... This has happened with several programs now

Any ideas?

I am having the same problem. It just started for me on April 2. When I click on a search result link in Google or Yahoo from either IE or Firefox, I get redirected to a very loosely related site. I have a currently updated version of Symantec and have run Spybot and SuperAntiSpyware. I have tried to run ComboFix, but it won't run. Interestingly, I can't download any content from the ComboFix site. I hade to use a laptop and email the file to myself. Then, it wouldn't run--it starts to and then just stops on its own. SmitfraudFix also won't run. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Many thanks...
