win32/Small.CA virus
A little background info. Afew days ago I installed Easy Burner prog. from Soft Pedia in error and uninstalled it but parts of it did not uninstall. Did afew sys. restores, then PC wouldn't shut down & had to use power button to be able to restart again. Then Windows said that it detected a critical error and had to restart. I.E.'s were both not responding. Popup at bottom: MBAM successfuly blocked access to a potentially malicious website 207.232.22.60 -- Type: outgoing -- Port 5328 (but always a different port number) when opening I.E. Process: Avast svc.exe. Info on I.E. page indicated network problems so tried network diagnostics that they recommended and finally it said 'no problems'. I.E is now working.
Google Chrome is still unresponsive with "This website page is not available" at the top and the same popup as above from MBAM & Avast as was on I.E. Google Chrome has website www.searchnu.com sitting in the address bar. Is this a rogue site as I could not find any info about it?
Action Center reports this message: remove win32/Small.CA virus
Windows Fire Wall: There has never been any entries in the 'allow programs thro' firewall', as I was told that it wasn't necessary to configure it as the firewall just did it's thing. However, now there are over 30 entries of various kinds listed and some randomly checked under home/work & public. ??
None of these browsers have proxy enabled. Scans done -- complete MBAM, SAS, Avast & boot, MSRT, MSS, spybot. Did a lot of searching but am unsure what is safe to do. Would greatly appreciate some help. Thanks in advance.
