DNS Unblocker / DNS Unlocker

Post by Frizz »

Hello all,
I'd like to report that DNS Unblocker has taken over many sites with pop-up links that take me to malware sites and such. How can I get rid of this burden for GOOD. Here is an image of what I mean: http://i.imgur.com/KeMp3KU.png

It is not found on my computer... I don't get why the ads keep popping up. I'm going to run SpyHunter 4 to see how I can get this solved once and for all.

I have attempted to remove browser malware but to no avail. My browser has literally be absconded, to the degree where my adblock subscriptions get removed, I cannot get into my password manager, and when I do all my passwords have been erased, settings are constantly being changed and I have run all the recommend malware programs. I am at the point where I have to refresh Firefox every other day as it only seems to take them that long to regain control. I use Adblock, Adblock Plus, Ghostery, Cookie Destroyer; which programs themselves they seem to have complete control over. If anyone has had a problem to this extent and has found a solution please let me know. Thank you for any considerations this may bring my way.

You need to read the links in this thread first before posting. That's how you remove this malware.

Trust me, dude/dudess
As a PC fixer, I have seen these adware pups for long enough to already have methods for removing them.
First, check this forum topic:
http://sensorstechforum.com/forums/malw ... m-your-pc/
Then check these two web links which look into it in detail and have removal instructions:

http://sensorstechforum.com/dns-unlocke ... val-steps/
http://sensorstechforum.com/dns-unblock ... d-removal/

Also check this instruction Video in case you get confused:

I personally prefer this site because they always answer in the forums on time, i mean it helped me and i fix PCs, so... you should try these tutorials. Let me know after that ;)

SpyHunter is being advertised on the site Lanik linked but:

Which Adblock are you using in addition to Adblock Plus? There are currently many illegitimate adblockers circulating around. Anyways, I recommend you uninstall the other Adblock and scan your computer for malware with Malwarebytes Anti-Malware. Thanks.
