    Hi Geeks!

    I've run through all stages of clearing a browser hijack (flushed caches, ran junkware removal, tdsskiller which didn't improve things, then ran through the Malware checklist (unhide hidden files, defogger, cccleaner), then moved on to the Windows 8 tools download. All have run now, and it seems to be ok except nom.ambitionssparse,com keeps attempting a redirect but doesn't actually get to a specific address.
    Here are the logs I have. tdsskiller and hitman pro did not find any threats. Any advice very much appreciated :)

    Hi there. :)

    Could you upload the logs regardless of what they found please? I would also like to see the log from Malware Bytes.

    I can't find the cccleaner log but I think these are the rest - should I rerun it?

    Which browser(s) is redirecting, is it Internet Explorer? Let me know!


    Fix items using RogueKiller.

    Double-click RogueKiller.exe to run. (Vista/7/8 right-click and select Run as Administrator)
    When it opens, press the Scan button
    Now click the Tasks tab and locate these detections:

    • [Suspicious.Path] \UpdateAdmin -- C:\Users\Beccys\AppData\Local\UpdateAdmin\UpdateAdmin.exe (/RUN) -> Found

    Place a checkmark next to each of these items, leave the others unchecked.
    Now press the Delete button.

    ...and the same for these entries on the Files tab please.

    • [PUP][Folder] C:\ProgramData\{ab559773-eb33-4593-ab55-59773eb35dcf} -> Found
    • [PUP][Folder] C:\ProgramData\{af163672-5678-5244-af16-63672567d9c9} -> Found
    • [PUP][Folder] C:\ProgramData\{EB5F5A55-037A-4E47-806B-2C8AA9374701} -> Found

    When it is finished, there will be a log on your desktop called: RKreport[2].txt
    Attach RKreport[2].txt to your next message. (How to attach)
    Reboot the machine.



    Re run Malware Bytes and let it remove anything else it may find.
    Re run Hitman Pro, activate/enable the free trial and let it remove what it finds, too.


    Download and run OTM.

    Download >>> OTM <<<by Old Timer and save it to your Desktop.

    Code:
    :reg
    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\software\Wow6432Node\microsoft\windows\currentVersion\RunOnce]
    "Gafagecosor"=-
    
    :Files
    C:\Users\Beccys\AppData\Local\6D26EC~1
    
    :Commands
    [emptytemp]
    [Reboot]
    • Return to OTM, right click in the Paste List of Files/Folders to Move window (under the yellow bar) and choose Paste.
    • Push the large http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2782/4174320048_f01c448b32_o.png button.
    • OTM may ask to reboot the machine. Please do so if asked.
    • Copy everything in the Results window (under the green bar), and paste it into a text file to ATTACH into your next reply.

    NOTE: If you are unable to copy/paste from this window (as will be the case if the machine was rebooted), open Notepad (Start->All Programs->Accessories->Notepad), click File->Open, in the File Name box enter *.log and press the Enter key, navigate to the C:\_OTM\MovedFiles folder, and open the newest .log file present, and attach the contents of that document back here in your next post.


    • Run the C:\MGtools\GetLogs.bat file by double clicking on it. (Right click and run as admin if using Vista, Windows7 or Win8) Then attach the new C:\MGlogs.zip file that will be created by running this.
    • Let me know of any problems you may have encountered with the above instructions and also let me know how things are running!
