Help Requested with Pop Ups -- Logs Attached

Welcome to Major Geeks!

Your logs show no signs of malware. Are you sure that you are not just getting popups related to the websites you are accessing? For example, are you getting popups while coming here to Major Geeks. CasaleMedia is most frequently found as a cookie which is not a problem. What browser are you using?

Please uninstall Viewpoint Media Player as requested in step 1 of the READ & RUN ME.

What is VideoToolkit01 that you have installed and when did you install it?


Now let's just cleanup some caches and miscellaneous junk, but I don't think you are having malware problems.

Run C:\MGtools\analyse.exe by double clicking on it (Note: if using Vista, don't double click, use right click and select Run As Administrator). This is really HijackThis (select Do a system scan only) and select the following lines but DO NOT CLICK FIX until you exit all browser sessions including the one you are reading in right now:

After clicking Fix, exit HJT.
