    uhh.. clubdub virus?

    *Registered users who are signed in do not see this ad.

    so, for the past couple of days every time i open clubwrx from computer this pops up:



    then it pops up this fake screen that looks like "my computer" folder on my computer. (similar to what trojan viruses do) i click the back button & sometimes it takes me back to clubwrx & sometimes it takes me back to the fake virus thing.

    i've checked my computer & i dont have any viruses. it only happens when i come to this website.

    i'm using firefox if that makes a difference.

    I got this on my CPU but not popping up on this site.

    I downloaded AVG and Malwarebytes and did several scans with both. I read on the internet that Malwarebytes will uninstall the issue and fix it. I havent had it since I scanned with both of those.

    My research has shown that if you hit the link it will take you to a "scan" which will show several viruses and then ask for your credit card information and tell you that if you buy their product the alerts will be deleted due to their anti virus program.

    Yup, that's spyware. I use a combination of Spybot, CCleaner, and Malwarebytes to get rid of stuff like that. There may be a possibility that it's buried itself in your registry and won't let you run any of those programs, which is a whole other can of steaming ****.

    Download those programs if you don't already have them.

    download adaware and hijack this (hijack this you need some registry knowledge), load up your comp in safe mode and run adaware, if it doesn't solve your problem you might have to manual remove it with hijackthis.

    if you relay your problem on certain anti-adware forums, there are many knowledgeable people that would be able to interpret your logs from hijackthis and tell you exactly what you have and instruct you on proper removal.

    Another option is to google the problem text (in this case the dialog box) and add the words "spy ware" to the end...
