Rss Feeds Are Letting Viruses In!!

Hi Darren,

That's good
Everything seems fine, but it was best to check things out.

• Please double-click OTL.exe to run it.
• You should see a CleanUp! button, press that button,
  
  
  
• This will remove any programs we have asked you to download along with there associated folders.. plus itself.

Note:
MBAM will not be removed

To find out how you may have been infected....read this topic:
So how did i get infected?

Not all of the following information will be applicable to you, but it's still best to read it all.

Now that you are clean, please follow these simple steps in order to keep your computer clean and secure:

• Use an AntiVirus Software
  • Avira AntiVir
  • Avast free
  • AVG Free
  • Bitdefender Free
  • MS Security Essentials ... see note*
  
  Note*:
  Upon installation MS Security Essentials will check that your OS is a legal copy.
  
  Only install one AntiVirus program
  
• Update your AntiVirus Software regularly
  
• Use a 3rd party Firewall
  • ZoneAlarm ...Important note below
  • Outpost Firewall Free
  • Sunbelt Personal Firewall
  • Online Armor Free
  NOTE: If choosing Zone Alarm be aware that the free version also installs ZoneAlarm Spy Blocker. It is recommended however that you UNcheck this option.
  
  Only install one software Firewall
  
  Some 3rd party Firewalls will turn off the windows firewall when they are installed.
  It's always best to check that the Windows Firewall is turned off:
  
  How to turn off Windows Firewall:
  Start ... Control Panel ...click on 'Classic View'.
  now select Windows Firewall.
  When the Windows Firewall box opens, put a tick against .. Off (not recommended) and then click Ok
  
• Scan regularly with a 'Stand Alone' Anti-Malware scanner:
  Installing another scanner that you can run once or twice a week is always beneficial.
  Something like:
  Malwarebytes Anti-Malware
  SUPERAntiSypware
  Remember to update these programs each time before running.
  You can install more than one of these if you only run them as stand alone programs.
  
• Use an alternative browser:
  Some excellent alternatives to MS Internet Explorer are:
  
  Firefox
  For added security, add the NoScript extension to this browser:
  Allow active content to run only from sites you trust, and protect yourself against XSS and Clickjacking attacks
  also consider adding:
  WOT - Safe Browsing Tool
  
  Web of Trust warns you about risky sites that cheat customers, deliver malware or send spam. Millions of members of the WOT community rate sites based on their experience, giving you an extra layer of protection when browsing or searching the Web.
  Btw: you don't have to make a contribution.
  
  Opera
  
  They offer better security, more stability, and better speed.
  
• Keep a backup of your registry
  Keeping a regular backup of your registry will help when something goes wrong.
  Use a program like:
  Erunt
  
  A full tutorial on how to set up and use Erunt can be found here:
  Erunt tutorial
  
• Keep your system clean of temp files etc, using a 'Cleaner':
  
  Cleaners are programs that will help to clean out your:
  Windows temp files
  Current user temp files
  Cookies
  Temporary Internet flies
  Browser history
  Recycle bin
  Etc.......
  In other words.... all the rubbish that you accumalate over the course of your browsing and day to day usage of your pc.
  Programs like:
  CCleaner
  TFC by OldTimer
  ATF Cleaner
  
• Visit Microsoft's Windows Update Site Frequently - It is important that you visit http://www.windowsupdate.com regularly.
  
• Install SpywareBlaster - SpywareBlaster will add a large list of programs and sites into your Internet Explorer settings that will protect you from running and downloading known malicious programs.
  
  A tutorial on installing & using this product can be found here:
  Using and installing SpywareBlaster
  
• Update all your 'Security' programs regularly - Without regular updates you WILL NOT be protected when new malicious programs are released.

Follow this list and your potential for being infected again will reduce dramatically.

Glad I was able to help.

Safe surfing.
