Bloodhound exploit 281

How do I remove this threat?

Buy a decent anti-virus suite. Either Norton as a well featured solution or ESET NOD32. Those packages should be able to remove it as they are professional AVs. A free version would be Avast or AVG.

Hi hodjohnson,

Try starting with this step:

Restart your computer in 'Safe Mode with Networking Support'.
(To do this: Power on your computer and start tapping the F8 key at the top of your keyboard rapidly until the Windows Start Menu appears. Then select the Safe Mode with Networking Support menu option and press the Enter key)

Open your web browser and go to www.malwarebytes.org

Download their free malwarebytes program from their main page

Install the program on your computer and run it.

Update the Malwarebytes program and do a full scan.
(You may be asked to restart. Do so, but use F8 key to return to Safe Mode)

Then scan with your own antivirus in Safe Mode as well.

Let us know the results of the scan and whether or not any symptoms persist and we will troubleshoot deeper.

Cheers!
