    Default yieldmanager & superfish malware HELP.

    Hi,
    I hope this is the right place for this post. I'm a newbee with a huge pain in my head. My computer has been getting slower and slower and more ads keep appearing. There are those flashing ads, also when I click a link a new tab opens, but not to the link I clicked (another ad page) I have run spybot and AVG but neither seem to solve the problem. I know its yieldmanager as I can see the address quickly appear in the bottom left hand corner of my browser.
    Any help very welcome.

    Hello AdzeMan,

    Aside from third party tracking cookies your description is that of a browser hi-jack, what is the operating system please.

    Best regards.

    Hi AdzeMan,

    For someone to take a look at the system please start a topic in the Malware Removal Forum and a volunteer analyst will advise when available.

    First see that forum's FAQ which also includes instructions in post #2 on how to provide DDS and aswMBR logs, which are used in the preliminary analysis.
