Windows 10: How Do I Get Rid of SweetPacks

Good morning, everyone.

I had a major video card failure. But this morning, I opened it up and gave it a good cleaning (long overdue) and it's running as normal. Since the error I got was driver based and the drivers were current (GeForce 760 GTX), I ran a virus scan. AVG did not pick up anything, but that's why I have MalwareBytes as a backup *Smile

MalwareBytes picked up:





I quarantined it, deleted it, and ran MalwareBytes again, and I got the same result. I even ran it without pulling up Chrome, and I got the same result. It's like Groundhog Day. What do I do to get rid of this once and for all?

Thanks for your help.

how do I get rid of get-a-clip ads?

Follow the instructions here.

If it is not listed in the Control Panel, or cannot be removed there, skip to Step 2. HitmanPro may not be needed.

 

how do I get rid of get-a-clip ads?

When I surf the web, "get-a-clip" ads pop up at the bottom of the screen. I tried to disable them in Internet Explorer, but it does not allow me to hit the disable tab. I was able to take it off my PC, but the ads persist. How do I get rid of Get-a-Clip

You might want to give AdwCleaner a try, it's good at removing PUP's and browser add ons.

Also might be a good idea to run RKill to try & terminate the malware process before you run any scans. DO NOT reboot after running RKill, instead start scanning immediately.

Good morning.

I did them both as per your instructions, but when I run MalwareBytes, I get the same viruses popping up. Any suggestions?

Thanks for your help.

 

Okay, I think I may have found the source. I had to get rid of my Amazon Assistant (never really used it anyway) and I think I found the source file, but my last two scans each of AdwCleaner and MalwareBytes came up negative. Thanks again for the help, I really appreciate it.

 

Hope you found the problem, got it sorted & glad to help.
