    @scopio, here is what you need to do ! Remove Avast, remove McAfee with their uninstallers and then run these 2 programs, then post the report(s) for me to type you a removal list to run !

    Malwarebytes AdwCleaner >>> Download AdwCleaner

    Please download AdwCleaner and save it to your Desktop
    * Close all open programs and browsers
    * Right click on the icon and select Run as administrator
    * Click Scan now
    * Allow the program to Quarantine what it finds except for Pre-installed applications if you would like to keep those or other entries you would like to keep
    * When completed click View Scan Log File
    * Copy and paste the contents in your reply
    * Click Skip Basic Repair if it appears then close the program

    =================================

    FARBAR (FRST)
    Download Farbar Recover Scan Tool for 64 bit systems <<<< Downloading Farbar Recovery Scan Tool >>> and save it to your Desktop. <<< Important
    If your computer language is other than English right click on the FRST64 icon and rename it to FRST64english
    * Right click on the icon and select Run as administrator
    * Note: If you receive any warning about the download it is a false positive and you can ignore it. Click on More info to get the Run anyway option
    * Click Yes to the disclaimer
    * Click Scan and allow the program to run
    * Click OK on the Scan complete screen, then OK on the Addition.txt pop up screen

    2 Notepad documents should now be open on your desktop.
    Please copy and paste the contents of each report in separate reply windows

    Thanks !

    @flashh4 thank you for your suggestions
    The pc has never had Avast or McAfee installed.

    I will not be able to run Malwarebytes AdwCleaner or FARBAR (FRST) any time soon as it is my brother's pc and I have to do whatever remotely.

    @scopio, so did your brother uninstall McAfee when he got the computer ? Just pass the link along to him when you can & tell him the Farbar (FRST) must be installed on the desk top for it to work !!
    Thanks !
