I'm an idiot. "safefinder" ad ware all over my chrome and more.. - DashPHP - Jun 27, 2016
Hey guys,
So I torrented from what it seems to be a very trust worthy DL (had lots of seeds/downloads) and not only the vid didn't work, but it downloaded a shit load of crap that I can't seem to remove..
I can't even run combofix because I'm on windows 10.
Please if anyone can help me remove this adware I'd be very thankful!

This thing happened to me and programs were installing too and every time I would uninstall it would install another thing. I had to resort to wiping my computer clean and reinstalling Windows 10. I hope you get this solved. Try going into extensions and see if anything can be uninstalled.

Please do not go astray from these directions. This may cause damage to your computer if done incorrectly.
Please do not follow any other directions except mine during this time. It may cause a conflict between tools and specialists.
-\1/-Download FRST (Farbar Recovery Scan Tool) <== Click
-\2/-Close all open programs.
-\3/-Execute it on your desktop.
--\4/--When looking at the menu, make sure that these are all checked:
"Registry", "Services", "Drivers", "Processes", "Internet", "Addition.txt", and "Drivers MD5".
These all must be checked, as they are necessary for me to fully diagnose your PC.
--\5/--Click Scan
--\6/--After the scan is complete, two windows will appear. One is the FRST.txt file, and the other is the Addition.txt file. You must copy and paste them into pastebin and paste the two links here.
These two files will also be located in the folder you ran FRST in.
---\I/---If you are unable to post the links here, please say so. If you are unresponsive for 7 days, I may leave this thread.
If you are unable to download links, please let me know.

Hey,
An awesome guy PM'd me and helped solve this issue. He installed some sweet AV's which wiped the adwares out. In addition to resolving this, he installed sandboxie for me to enjoy running my potentially.
Thanks a lot Notepad++ :)
