So, it seems like out of nowhere Im getting hammered by a virus, Im not sure where it came from. I think it has something to do with accidentally hitting accept to install a toolbar on another program... So far i know its opening something called chromium to the yahoo search on boot, and is hijacking my internet browser, often giving me 1-3 popups when i click on anything. Ive run cc cleaner and malwarebytes and this has not resolved the issue.... Ive also found a Glassbottle extension in my chrome settings and removed it, but it keeps coming back... Im currently running a full system scan with avast and intend to do a boot scan afterwards But if anyone knows better programs or anything helpful some help would be appreciated...please and thank you x.x

Well, hitman pro immeately blue screened my computer when i clicked yes to reboot my computer after the scan, so i went ahead and uninstalled that, then i uninstalled google chrome nuked its appdata folder, restarted in safe mode, re scanned with malewarebyets rebooted and reinstalled chrome....all seems well now x.x That was a nasty thing

install winpatrol free to help keep your browser safe. it specifically looks for these types of things. and it helps with investigating and cleaning if something goes wrong.
