So regardless of whether he was clean 2 weeks ago or not he's infected now and needs to clean the system again. He's not getting browser hijacks, he's got a piece of adware generating popups. Another known symptom of several Vundo variants.
To be honest he probably needs to take the machine to a professional or let someone he trusts remote in and fix the issue because there's a good chance it will require some specialized cleaning. |
While this is true as i have stated he posted teh very same day he got the clean bill of health. So it was more than jsut malware. Since he was still infected after he got clean. So it was a browser hijack that turned into something else.
