    Surprised you've never heard of SAS, its pretty well known on these forums. Its mostly used for scanning for malicious cookies which it does very well.
    Oh no - I meant I'd never heard of the infection; SAS I've used for years.

    In the end I restored a Macrium Reflect backup copy. Now I have to investigate where and how I caught that. I have made some changes to WD to strengthen security (enable pua dectection) and I have installed MBAE (which wasn't installed).
    If you ever figure it out, would be interesting to know!

    As far as I know, it was some virus from the Gamarue family or such. I plug in a lot of infected usb sticks, it could have come from there (not very probably) or something we clicked while browsing the web. It's hard to know.
