    Default Click Gift.Load (And the Cat Came Back)

    Okay...
    Of course I joined to get help with an infection -- sorry, guys, I know that's bad forum etiquette. But I'm completely stymied by this one and I need help, please! I've read through the "before you post" thread and, yeah... I've tried to fix this one on my own with no success.

    Sorry if that makes your job harder. :(


    I got infected with the Click Gift.Load hijacker (pretty sure from Facebook, my mom clicked a link and exploded my AVG with alerts) and, while I can normally clear these by myself, nothing I've tried has worked. I've run HJT and fixed all suspicious entries, AVG comes up with nothing but a broken digital signature in otherwise benign software, and I've even tried a registry patch with OTL for the key that seems to be causing all the problems
    (HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main\featurecontrol\FEATURE_BROWSER_EMULATION\\svchost.exe).

    HELP!

    Default Nevermind...

    This morning I couldn't even log onto Windows, but was able to system restore to an earlier point. I didn't find the infection on scans afterward, but I'm starting a new topic to see if there's still remnants.

    This topic can be safely closed.

    Thanks!

    Clarification FYI for others who may read this.

    "Please do NOT turn off System Restore trying to remove an infection. Doing so would only serve to destroy a known restore point (dirty or not) and won't remove the malware. Let your helper advise you as to when a System Restore flush is called for."
