Well something fucked with my computer.
I never used to get popups.
All of the sudden porn tube popped up... wtf i've never even visited porn tube.

wtf popups...
Social Justice is a fools errand. May all the adherents at its church be thwarted. Of all the religions I have come across, it is by far the most detestable.

[didn't read all thread.. srry if repost]
Do you have access to the web?
If so, try this to scan your PC: http://housecall.trendmicro.com/ free only scan (work great).

Also, stop anything that you don't know for sure you need in Start -> Run -> msconfig -> Startup tab

Take a look of the services that are running on your PC in Start -> Run -> services.msc
Look at every single services that are installed and look at the description of each one. If it sound weird, disable it. (Even if it's not Started)

malwarebytes anti malware and microsofts MRT will remove everything if used in conjunction. If you want direct links, I can provide. They've turned BSODing computers at work with tons of pop ups and 50 processes taking 100% CPU usage into rock solid server machines.

I love Windows Vista so much! The new protection measures allow the virus to infect, but not to execute, effectively freezing your entire system! One small step for user-level software security, one giant leap for Micro$oft's bank roll!
People who fail to distinguish Socratic Method from malicious trolling are sadly stupid and not worth a response.

Did you update/download codecs in order to watch that anime you downloaded?
If yes, that's propably where you get your trojan.

A friend of mine had the same problem (redirected URLs). It was called Zlob.dnschanger.

I booted in safe mode and tried to clean the registry of everything "zlob" and the fake DCHP-entries in order to being able to do an online scan.
But in the end it boiled down to a reinstall.

Good luck...

Yeah codec packs are like always infested with shitloads of different things, especially if you just use the first page you come by using google.

I don't get why no-one on this site uses anti virus software, I use AVG and scan the computer daily, along with weekly scans of adaware and running zone alarm firewall 24/7.

I never get viruses, but it's better to be safe than sorry

If you have don't get anything go to Start --> Run --> "explorer.exe"

Once you get your desktop back up you can rush Spybot, Adaware, and if those don't get it AVG or Avast can do a thorough, and lengthy, job.
seriously next disrespectful comment in this blog is ip ban. Be happy or get the hell out. // SC2 is like playing with neutral-colored Play-Doh while BW is like colorful Legos.

Format computer and make sure to partition your hdd next time! I always keep atleast two partitions with windows files on C:/ and everything else on D:/. Makes life alot easier when you get a virus

Sounds exactly like a virus I had. The virus is very very smart. It blocks only the most popular anti-virus websites and programs. It also blocks links from a google search, so I found myself using the 'cached' button to find help.

I used this program, but I can't remember if I used this link or not (might be blocked for you), but the program was not blocked by the virus.
http://www.download.com/Malwarebytes-Anti-Malware/3000-8022_4-10804572.html?part=dl-10804572&subj=dl&tag=button

Run the program and get rid of anything it finds. Afterwards, you should be able to run the anti-virus programs, so now run HiJackThis and run a test. Unless you know what you're doing, you should post the list here or feel free to PM me and I'll point out which to delete.

this has happened to me before.

im 100% its spyware/virus.

testie u need to download HijackThis ------>HJT

run it, copy the log. DO NOT do anything as of yet because u can seriously delete some important shit with this program.

then go to www.bleepingcomputer.com

join the forums, navigate to a section that says either "malware" or "hijackthis logs"

post your log along with an explanation of whats going on and an expert will guide you step by step on how to go about removing the threat for good. trust me, these ppl are gods when it comes to this.

edit: their response time is less than 12 hours usually, so its worth it.
Im cooler than the other side of the pillow.
