Windows defender is pretty useless with firefox, so you still need your scan and remove programs. Spyware Blaster will protect firefox as well as I.E.
Sources can be found in my yahoo 360 blog.

circulate into secure Mode (hit F8 key persistently while rebooting), then run your anti-virus application & finished test of advert conscious. additionally, you may could disable gadget restoration & then run virus application. save working those until eventually there are no longer any infections final. If Norton does not artwork, try utilizing Avast unfastened abode version. in case you have been utilizing IE, try utilizing Firefox, plenty safer. you additionally can use ccleaner to freshen up pc & save it working easily.

Always run separate programs. There are objects that one program may not find but another will.
