What is "logger.js"?

simrick, Computiac,

OK, I'm going to do this! It's too late tonight so shutting down the computer, but tomorrow I will immediately begin the scanning.

Thanks again for the help and the pep talk.

Great, get a good nights sleep and we will see you in the morning.
You can do this.

Please consider posting the log after each scan, (ask if you don't know where to find them), as this may be a new twist on an old infection method, and I'd like to see what it's all about, to understand it better for future, and advise additional steps if found to be necessary. Night!

I picked this up when I was using findagrave.com this summer (a couple of months ago). I x'd out of it, but it kept popping up. It eventually stopped popping up. A few days ago it began popping up when I check my Yahoo email. That's the only place I currently get it.

Hi writerperson and welcome to Tenforums.
You may want to run the scans mentioned in post # 6 as well, to get it off your system. :)

Computiac, simrick,
Thank you for your suggestions.

I went to the site that the bunny suggested (what happened to his reply?). It seemed to have good info, but it made me a tiny bit leery when it got to the pay version of Spyhunter so I did not proceed with it.

It looks like I have a lot of work ahead of me (Thank you for the detailed list, simrick). One option I have is to let the Norton folks have a try at tearing into it (by chance I selected the "they'll-fix-any-virus" option when I renewed my Norton 360 subscription). Is that something that you would recommend or should I take the long road to self enlightenment. (BTW - I am moderately computer savvy, but I have very few hairs left to pull out).

Thanks again.

I removed that post because I didn't notice it was a pay version and I was hoping you didn't use it.

Jeff.. I should have and next time I will edit the post and explain why I did.

Thank you very much simrick! I carefully followed your instructions and voila, no more haso.pubmatic.com. Probably cleaned a lot of other junk too. Thanks again.

Hi Gjoo and welcome to Tenforums.
Thanks for creating an account and letting us know that worked for you. Cheers!

Thanks Jeff. Yeah, you've got to be careful with some of these generic "malware removal sites", as they can be just as bad as the malware.
