    I am running Windows 7 (64-bit) Ultimate with 4 GB RAM

    I had visited a Facebook page when after a moment the banners and graphics were replaced with warnings that they might contain malware (I use Avira, which does that).

    I immediately closed the browser.

    Upon starting up again, I visited another Facebook page and discovered it not working (reported of the app being out of sync).

    I can access other sites, and it is only one page (a game), but the two seem related. I tried running the page via Chrome and it still didn't work.

    There are no logs from Combofix or RootRepeal since this is a 64-bit version of Windows 7.

    Please help me get this fixed.

    I'm sorry but you are not having malware problems. You may want to check to make sure that it is not just Avira blocking the pages since it did not like them to begin with.

    You're welcome.


    Since you are not having malware problems, it is time to do our final steps:
    1. We recommend you keep SUPERAntiSpyware and Malwarebytes Anti-Malware for scanning/removal of malware. Unless you purchase them, they provide no protection. They do not use any significant amount of resources ( except a little disk space ) until you run a scan.
    2. If we had you use ComboFix, uninstall ComboFix (This uninstall will only work as written if you installed ComboFix on your Desktop like we requested.)
      • Click START then RUN and enter the below into the run box and then click OK. Note the quotes are required
      • "%userprofile%\Desktop\combofix" /uninstall
        • Notes: The space between the combofix" and the /uninstall, it must be there.
        • This will uninstall ComboFix and also reset hidden files and folders settings back to Windows defaults.
    3. Any other miscellaneous tools we may have had you install or download can be uninstalled and deleted.
    4. If we had you download any registry patches like fixme.reg or fixWLK.reg (or any others), you can delete these files now.
    5. If running Vista, it is time to make sure you have reenabled UAC by double clicking on the C:\MGtools\enableUAC.reg file and allowing it to be added to the registry.
    6. Go to add/remove programs and uninstall HijackThis.
    7. Goto the C:\MGtools folder and find the MGclean.bat file. Double click on this file to run this cleanup program that will remove files and folders related to MGtools and some other items from our cleaning procedures.
    8. After doing the above, you should work thru the below link:
