A virus and trojan?

bsod

are things changing, or static?

at one point, you went to google.co.uk, and it showed google greece in various browsers

then you went to google play, and it was all in greek

then it was just adverts in greek, but rest in english

I can't see it in programs, I ran malwarebytes today and it removed something, maybe that? And hitman pro has been run.

Gosh this thread is getting long, perhaps that the fact omiga-plus is still on there, as is a proxy it may help if we look at a hijackthis log http://filehippo.com/download_hijackthis/
and then post from the log .
Downlooad it and right click on the HijackThis.exe and run as administrator and select scan and save a log file. But don't fix yet

Still need to get rid of this.

I think I will have to leave for today, am done in now as you all must be,if we could resume? tomorrow if there is anything else to try... shall be around most of the day. Many thanks to everyone.

adwcleaner cleaned up some of this before, but you still apear to have startup entries relating to optimizer

it would be useful if you could pin it down to adverts or not, perhaps by using the other laptop

have you really been looking for a greek holiday lately?

aaroncaz

If you could show me how tomorrow I would be grateful thanks.

I have spoke to virgin, who really didn't know much, though his colleaque said he had? and to wipe the OS clean and start again or contain a shop which I have done the other day and they said the same, repair shops don't want to come out...... Obiously I would prefer to do my self , with help to save money.


Also regarding the super optimizer thing, have read thse instructions and run adwcleaner Had to reinstall it) will run malware again.

You have stated that your Greek problem only occurs when connected to your broadband and does not happen when using mobile data!

Please explain why you think that reinstalling the OS on one device, will stop your Greek problem on all of your other devices?

Rather than chasing your tail like a mad dog, could you try connecting to another local WiFi connection or take your PC to a frends or relatives and use their broadband?
