So, this problem appeared a few days ago - firstly windows started alerting me that an application I didn't recognise was crashing every 5 minutes. A quick check and it turned out to be a (Pretty poorly coded if you ask me) trojan which kept crashing. MBAM swiftly removed it, however I've noticed that since then links keep redirecting me to ad sites and sometimes a new tab will just show up (Every site they've so far redirected to has either already been in, or I've immediately added the domain to my adblock definitions).
My browser is Firefox (3.6.15) I reinstalled the latest version and the problem remains.
I've checked my extensions for known advertising bots, but no sign of any. The only ones in there are my standard ones I personally installed, like adblock.
So far I've done full system scans with the following tools:
MBAM
AVG
Spybot S&D
Microsoft Malicious software remover
All are fully updated to the latest version, all say my system is 100% clean.
I checked the HjT log myself but couldn't find any entries normally associated with this problem, anyone else care to see what I may have missed?
(As a side note, when I removed the trojan, my system restore history was deleted as an added precaution - which led to my woes yesterday with an infinite loop of bluescreens, caused by the kernel not liking something zonealarm had left behind when it was uninstalled)
