I have windows defender and I just turned on my computer and it says it detected a browser modifier (win32/fotomoto). It says the alert level is high. So i click remove and it says it successfully removes it. Then about 30 seconds later the alert will pop up again saying it detected the "fotomoto" thing. It doesn't seem to be affecting my computer but then again it just started popping up 30 minutes ago. Anyone have any ideas for me? should i be worried that something bad will happen?

Download SmitfraudFix (by S!Ri) to your Desktop.

Extract all the files to your Destop. A folder named SmitfraudFix will be created on your Desktop.

Open the SmitfraudFix folder and double-click smitfraudfix.cmd
Select option #1 - Search by typing 1 and press Enter
This program will scan large amounts of files on your computer for known patterns so please be patient while it works. When it is done, the results of the scan will be displayed and it will create a log named rapport.txt in the root of your drive, eg: Local Disk C: or partition where your operating system is installed. Please attach that log in your next reply.

Note: process.exe ( which is used by SmitFraudFIx ) is detected by some antivirus programs (AntiVir, Dr.Web, Kaspersky) as a "RiskTool"; it is not a virus, but a program used to stop system processes. Antivirus programs cannot distinguish between "good" and "malicious" use of such programs, therefore they may alert the user.

Last, run a new HijackThis scan and attach the log.

I ran the viewpoint killer and it said it couldn't find some of the files so i guess it couldnt kill the viewpoint manager. I included the log. I dont know if that is a big deal.
 
The ViewpointKiller worked.
