Yesterday when I was watching movie on the web, I received a pop up about “Browse2Save” that asked if I want to install it to my computer. I didn’t agree that but for some reasons it has been installed on my computer. Now I cannot uninstall it because it didn’t show up in Control Panel. And it keeps showing me various ads whenever I go online. How do I get rid of Browse2Save completely?

Worm:Win32/Vobfus.ZG has put my computer into danger. I got this virus about a few days ago but none of the antivirus software I tried worked. They are all powerful enough to find the virus but they all failed in removing it. I looked into the program files but still couldn’t find any suspicious folders or it could be that I did not know which is the malicious files. Anyway, I am trying to remove this stubborn virus and want to get some help.
Information about Worm:Win32/Vobfus.ZG:
Worm:Win32/Vobfus.ZG can be taken as a worm virus from the first sight. However, most of the antivirus software will take it as a Trojan because it has been modified with some Trojan horse characters other than a worm virus. Meanwhile, this virus does keep some of the worm virus abilities such as the capability of duplication and spreading. Trojan virus often doesn’t have as strong ability as a worm to copy itself and spread all over the hard drives. On the opposite, a Trojan always focuses on penetrating into the general system files to make chaos. As to this special virus, which takes both parts of the two kinds of viruses, it can not only duplicate in short time but also can lead system files into infection. Besides, it will arise more and more errors on the infected computer with time passing by. Read the rest of this post »

I had the get.default-page.com adware, a true nightmare. Had tried to remove several times and was just too complicated to completely stop the annoying pop ups. It was a VERY stubborn browser issue. I couldn’t access any web sites properly without being interrupted by constant popups or redirected to unknown sites. And system restore wouldn’t work either. Are there any other suggestions?

Get.default-page.com can be categorized as a browser hijacker problem that gives constant pop ups all over the webs on the affected browsers and interrupts users’ online activities in many ways.

This Trojan.ExploitDrop.BV has been detected by my anti-virus program about two weeks ago. I don’t know when and how it invades my computer. I want to get rid of it, but it won’t let me. I have tried many times by using my anti-virus software to remove it, but every time my work went in vain. I don’t know too much about computer. What can I do now? Please advise.
Brief Introduction to This Trojan
Trojan.ExploitDrop.BV uses various strategies to sneak into the PC. However, there are two main way for it to spread, suspicious websites and strange pop-ups. Sometimes it can be difficult to distinguish between legitimate sites and a bad one. This Trojan can also be implanted on some seemingly not suspicious web sites by hackers as they have already hacked the servers of those sites. Therefore, PC users should be very careful about links, especially the links in some dubious websites and pop-ups. Complete unknown pop-ups are the second common way for it to spread. These pop-ups can appear suddenly when computer users browse the Internet, the message of them can be random, and the only purpose for them is to lure people to click on them. Even if the pop-up messages tell that there are potential threats in the computer, computer users should not click on them, because this can be the trigger of this Trojan infection.
