Hi. My inlaws brought me their computer complaining of a few things:
1. The IE Script Debugger kept popping up
2. The search results in google would randomly send them somewhere else
3. The popup box with wuauclt.exe is infected, do you want to run your anitvirus software
I told them not to click on the box and that they were infected with some malware. However, I am not exactly sure how to clean it off. I ran the Malwarebytes scan and clean a bunch of files. This seems to have stopped the wuauclt.exe error and is allowing me to open executables again. However, the hijacked links problem is still persistent.
I followed the 8 steps on this forum and attached the logs. I would appreciate whatever assistance anyone can provide.
Thanks in advance.
Joe
