    So apparently I won a free apple. I'm winning these things regularly, several times a day! Apparently I may have malware - I have Malwarebytes pro running a full scan every day (I sometimes can it if I'm home and on my PC when it starts, but it runs 5-6 times a week).

    Anyway, I've done everything in the FAQ and attached the logs.

    N.B.
    The TDSS Killer program found an exe file called obitqs.exe - while it was checking it out I cancelled it. I know what this file is, I downloaded it deliberately and only after the popups started. It is an IT company's Teamviewer support program, to let them remote in to assist with an email issue.

    I think you're just fine. :) The logs look good. How are things running?

    However you do need to use MSConfig to put this machine back into normal start up mode.

    Thanks that's what I thought too - I'm running scans regularly and am careful not to click dodgy links or download toolbars etc. I was thinking of taking note of which websites I get the popup and see if it's only those websites. Perhaps their web server is infected or something. Doesn't matter in the end, I've got a clean bill of health!

    Things are running fine generally. :)

    I've changed back to normal startup mode - not sure why it wasn't there to begin with.

    Thanks for checking it out.

    So I just had the attached come up on my browser. This is what I've been getting.

    Nothing apparent on my system as per your previous post - any ideas for where I could search?

    Uninstall it with Revo Uninstaller, then reinstall and let me know how things are.

    Righteo, I won't be able to do it for a few days as we've just been kicked out of house while the floor gets sanded and polished.

    I'll post again when it's done and after I've tested it a bit.

    Thanks

    Ok sorry for the delay. Been building a kitchen.

    Uninstalled with Revo (Pretty nifty program that) - I did the full advanced uninstall and followed through removing a few leftover registry items and a good 2400 leftover files.

    Reinstalled, will let you know if the popup comes back

    Alrighty. Best of luck with the kitchen! :)
