How do i get rid of a pop up for "Anti-spyware box.com"?

Answer 1

Don't get any of the pop up stoppers or anti spy software as they put viruses on your computer to try and make you buy their software. Go to start and type in msconfig, in the startup and in services, deselect all the files and reboot your PC - this will stop the viruses from loading.

Go to Limewire.com and download Norton Anti virus, follow the instructions in the .txt file to install it so that you don't have to pay for it.

Run msconfig and select all the services and startup files and restart your PC. Norton will detect and destroy all the viruses, pop ups and spyware on your machine.

also download Window Washer to clean up your hard drive.

Answer 2

if you have a spyware problem, then you definetely need some professional help, fortunately companies like microsoft and symantec are aiding for free all computer users, since this spyware problem is actually doing so much harm to their business that most large companies like ibm and microsoft are teaming up to try to eradicate this problem.

I suggest you find a complete resource against spyware with free distributable programs, one such resource could be found here:

If any updates exist for any of the above, please install them before you do your scans.

Run and install them all in Safe Mode.

Download and run HijackThis from http://www.hijackthis.de/
Run it and then save a copy of the log.
Fix or put a check on the following HijackThis entries if you have them in the scan log:

C:\WINDOWS\system32\users32.exe (THIS WILL NEED DELETING ON REBOOT TO STOP INFECTION AGAIN)
O2 - BHO: (no name) - {00000000-59D4-4008-9058-080011001200} - (no file)

In HijackThis, click on Config and then select "Delete file on reboot", browse to the files and then restart your computer as well as deleting the above entries.
Hijackthis enables deletion on reboot. The users32.exe entry is what keeps infecting you. There seems to be a lot of possible spyware programs listed, and other applications, but you will have to look at directories and names to decided weather they are of importance.

Follow the steps at this link too:
http://www.technibble.com/case-study-removing-a-virusadware-not-detected-by-scanners/

Download roguescanfix_setup.
http://users.telenet.be/Beamerke/tools/roguescanfix_setup.exe
Doubleclick roguescanfix_setup to install it.

After the installation, you will be prompted if you would like to run roguescanfix now. Click "YES" to start the tool.

Note: This tool needs internet connection because it downloads an additional file to let the tool work properly.
If your firewall gives an alert, allow it instead of blocking it.
In case you still get the message BFU.exe is not present, download BFU.zip from here. http://www.merijn.org/files/bfu.zip
Unzip it and place BFU.exe in the c:\program files\roguescanfix-folder. Then doubleclick Roguescanfix.bat again.

The tool will uninstall some programs and delete related files and registry keys.
When some files won't get deleted, it will ask you to reboot your system to delete the files after reboot.
Please make sure the uninstall of the programs are finished before you click Yes to reboot.

A textfile will open. Place the contents of that file in your next reply, along with a new Hijackthis logfile.
(The textfile can also be found at c:\program files\roguescanfix\task.txt)

If you do not see any icon for "OIN" or "(program) by OIN" in Add/Remove Programs, please download their stand-alone uninstaller:
http://www.outerinfo.com/OiUninstaller.exe.

Also run smitrem by Noahdfear.
Download SmitRem.exe and save the file to the Desktop.
http://noahdfear.geekstogo.com/click%20counter/click.php?id=1
Double click on the file to extract it to it's own folder on the Desktop.

Now, reboot to Safe Mode:

Next, open the SmitRem folder
-Double click the "RunThis.bat" file to start the tool.
-Follow the prompts on screen.
The Desktop and icons disappear and then reappear again --- this is normal.
Wait for the tool to complete and Disk Cleanup to finish --- this may take a while.
When done, the log created by the smitRem tool is located at C:\smitfiles.txt

Restart your computer.

You can also use SmitfraudFix instead of Smitrem, they both do the same thing. If you use Smitfraudfix, run option 2.
SmitfraudFix:

In addition, if you know a file needs to be deleted you can download Unlocker to unlock the process that is holding the file. Then it can be deleted.
http://ccollomb.free.fr/unlocker/

You can also use the Recovery console from your Windows CD to login via an MS-DOS based shell and delete the file that way. Though this can sometimes be a pain if you use RAID or SCSI because you will need the driver disk handy.
