Default Re: SurfSideKick Removal

Please download Brute Force Uninstaller to your desktop. http://www.majorgeeks.com/Brute_Forc...BFU_d4714.html
  • Right-click the BFU folder on your desktop, and choose Extract All
  • Click "Next"
  • In the box to choose where to extract the files to,
  • Click "Browse"
  • Click on the + sign next to "My Computer"
  • Click on "Local Disk ( C: )" or whatever your primary drive is
  • Click "Make New Folder"
  • Type in BFU
  • Click "Next", and Uncheck the "Show Extracted Files" box and then click "Finish".
RIGHT-CLICK HERE (http://downloads.subratam.org/Lon/sidekickFix.bat) and choose "Save As" (in IE it's "Save Target As") in order to download SideKickFix by LonnyRJones.

Save it in the same folder you made earlier (C:\BFU).

Close ALL open windows & explorer folder's, then double-click on sidekickFix.bat. Click YES and follow the prompts, when prompted to restart the PC please do so.

Now run CCleaner. If you have Windows XP delete the contents of C:\WINDOWS\Prefetch.

Then, as an added precaution, Go to Start -> Run and type: cleanmgr and then click OK. Make sure the boxes for these are checked:
Quote:
Temporary Files
Temporary Internet Files
Recycle Bin
And Click OK.

Reboot to Normal Mode.

Post a fresh HijackThis log.
