Hi guys, as ever any help appreciated and greatful for advice.
Yesterday my Win7 install was running fine. Without warning my Windows firewall popped up a box asking me if I wanted to continue blocking a prog I had never heard before. I tried googling it to see what it was and from then all hell's broke loose.
Pretty much immediately fake spyware / antivirus ads started popping up and my browsers were hijacked and redirecting everything. Then it started blue screen crashing.
Running a variety of stuff including Malwarebytes in Safe Mode I can now get it to boot into the OS wthout blue screening but the broswer hijacking and the fake ads are still there.
I installed AVG and this seemed to hack away at some stuf but if I try running it now the scan won't start so I presume it's got to that. It does however load and say a bunch of files are infected with Win32/Heur. I don;t know what other evil lurks.
I have attached my Hijackthis logs and Malwarebytes. I can't download the SupeAntiSpyware prob because it says the server is down which I am also suspicious of.
Any steps to get psuedo back to normal greatfully appreciated...
