Peet Posted November 22, 2013 Share Posted November 22, 2013 Sounds like the shortcuts have been modified - I recently dealt with a computer infected by the Aartemis search engine which MalwareBytes AntiMalware fixed everything infected apart from the shortcuts (which had been changed to include Aartemis' own website address, after the .exe part of the shortcut). Thankfully AdwCleaner fixed all these for me. AdwCleaner is highly recommended for use with other tools such as MalwareBytes AntiMalware and Hitman Pro.Good luck :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Journey Posted November 22, 2013 Share Posted November 22, 2013 This sounds very similar to Conduit which, if you're not careful, will install on your machine if you install utorrent client.Freemake software products also do the same thing. Decline everything when installing any kind of software. Also never choose express install or automatic installation. Rather choose Custom or Manual installation throughout the whole installation process. This will avoid what I call "Intrusionware". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
