    i got this winreanimator module thing. and i cant get rid of it. before i got it i had NO virus scanners or anything installed onto my computer. and now i have this malware thing and i dont know how to get rid of. i tried to read other threads but they are so confusing and i have no idea what to do. i tried to run spybot but it wont run. it wont let me install avg. i installed spyhunter but i need to pay for it in order for it to remove my virus. i cant do anything that involves money because i dont have that much money to spend on such things so i prefer free things. im trying avast as we speak. i just dont know what to do anymore. i really need this computer fixed :\ help me

    Welcome to Majorgeeks!

    Scanners in the below guide are free, I know from our guide that MalwareBytes scanner will detect and remove this, but do try and follow the whole guide as malware generally comes in small groups and if you did not have adequate security installed, a few could have been dropped on your PC.


    Please follow the instructions in the below link and attach the requested logs when you finish these instructions.

    Yes re-formatting will remove this, but you should not have to goto this drastic step yet!
