My wife's computer has become infected with the pop-up spyware program
Winfixer. A web search shows this to be a common spyware. The Symantec site
has a 3 page description of the files and Registry items that should be
deleted. I meticulously went through each & every item Symantec lists and NONE
of them were present on the wife's computer!
I did a comprehensive web search using "remove Winfixer" or "uninstall
Winfixer" and checked out dozens of "hits" that in the end were not helpful.
The one hit that did seem to solve the problem was a HijackThis forum where an
infected person, under the direction of the web master, ran three different
programs & repeatedly sent a HijackThis log file to the forum with feedback for
each log file from the master. I printed out this thread and it was 15 printed
pages!!
I tried to find a software application that clearly said it would remove all
traces of Winfixer and found none.
Does anyone have a known solution???
