Whilst I knock up a combofix script, run a quick scan with Malwarebytes.0 -
Run this combofix script. If combofix tells you there is a newer version available, let it update.
- Open Notepad
- Copy and paste the text present inside the code box below (Don't include Code:)
DDS:: uStart Page = uInternet Settings,ProxyServer = uInternet Settings,ProxyOverride = Firefox:: FF - ProfilePath - c:\users\andrew\appdata\roaming\mozilla\firefox\profiles\hyta1k67.default\ FF - prefs.js: browser.search.defaulturl - FF - prefs.js: browser.search.selectedEngine - FF - prefs.js: keyword.URL - FF - prefs.js: network.proxy.http - FF - prefs.js: network.proxy.http_port - FF - prefs.js: network.proxy.type -
- Save this as CFScript.txt and change the "Save as type" to "All Files" and place it on your desktop.
- Temporarily disable your anti-virus (AVG), before following the steps below.
- To disable your Antivirus (AVG), see here.
- Drag CFScript.txt into ComboFix.exe as the screenshot above shows.
- ComboFix will scan & may reboot when it finishes. Combofix.txt will open.
- Copy and paste the contents of the log here.

I've done this and got the log but now neither Firefox (the usual browser) or IE will open meaning I can't get on here to post it (currently on my own computer).
Firefox says "Illegal operation attempted on a registry key that has been marked for deletion." and IE just won't do anything.
EDIT: Sorry IE also says the same.0 -
Reboot, then open firefox again.0
-
Reboot, then open firefox again.
Oops, that would do the trick
