    Virus / Malware


    - Windows 10 Pro 64 bit

    About two weeks ago, I would get periodic popups in the form of a new tab in Edge. On the new tab, it said:

    “Congratulations User!
    You have been selected today to receive a FREE iPhone X, PlayStation 4 or Samsung Galaxy S6!
    Please click OK to claim the prize before we giveaway to somebody else!”


    Obviously, this is bad news.

    I searched and found this website:

    Remove scam (Removal Guide) - updated Mar 2018

    It suggested removing recent suspicious programs and clearing out your cache and other stuff from Edge. I did so.

    For about ten days, the malware did not reappear. Today it did reappear once again.

    I have scanned with Norton 360. It says my computer is clean.

    I have run Malwarebytes, and again, it says my computer is clean.

    But I know I have malware that is present.

    This popup occurs at random times. It will suddenly rear its ugly head by announcing over my speakers that I have won something.

    How do I find this thing and get rid of it?

    :)

  3. removal of sidecubes malware

    Do not get SpyHunter. It's just as bad as the malware you have,

    Follow the steps here.

    If it is not listed in the Control Panel, or it can't be removed there, move on to step 2. HitmanPro might not be needed.
