How do these 'viruses' exhibit themselves? Does the problem only affect your browser or is it all programmes (such as Microsoft Word)? Which web browser do you use?
You could try downloading AVG or turn pc off and buy a similar product

hi chris, i´m using firefox. exhibit themselves, i get quick flashes, and instantly know i´ve got a new virus, eg balaganna, yourads.com, which attack behind the page i´m using.

Go to Tools >Add-ons > Extensions. Look to see if there are any suspicious extensions that have installed themselves. If so, uninstall them. See if it makes any difference.

Otherwise note down the names of any extensions you want to keep (because you're about to get rid of them). Then go to Help > Troubleshooting Information. Click on Reset Firefox. Hopefully that will fix the problem and you can then reinstall any extensions that you want back.

If all else fails, try running System Restore to take your computer's registry back to a time before the problem occurred.

hey chris, i think that done the trick
cheers
I always say that when you've cleaned with Malwarebytes to turn off System Restore before you restart, then after restart scan again. Only when clean, turn back on System Restore

I really dont know what we´d do without you(technical issues) and sqad(medical issues)
My pleasure, Piggynose ;-)
What Antivirus are you using the latest version of AVAST Free has a lot of extra features .Malware Bytes has just a free program called Malware Bytes Anti Exploit which should help you as well .The browser clean up part in AVAST Free works very well also.
