Hello,
My default browser(GOOGLE CHROME) opens up automatically and repeatedly and it also happens with other browsers. I can’t do another work peacefully because browser opens up too many new tabs again and again… Please help me…
If you receive any security warnings, or the User Account Control warning opens at any time whilst using FRST you can safely allow FRST to proceed.
Frst will open with two dialogue boxes, accept the disclaimer.
Frst will take a few minutes to scan your computer, and when finished will produce two log files on your desktop, FRST.txt, and Addition.txt. They will display immediately on the desktop, but can be reopened later as a notepad file.
Thanks for your quick reply…
These are those two logs-

Have you tried cleaning the system prior to seeking our assistance?
We will need a log from AdwCleaner for further information.
Please download a copy of AdwCleaner from HERE, it is important to download it to your desktop.
Once downloaded to the desktop AdwCleaner will create an icon https://pchelpforum.net/attachments/...160702-jpg.828
Should you receive any security warnings or your User Account Control warning appears whilst you are using this application you can safely allow AdwCleaner to continue.
Before running AdwCleaner please ensure all other programs and browsers are closed, then double left click the icon to open it.
AdwCleaner will open, click the scan button to start searching.
The scan may take some time to complete, and when it has any malware found will be automatically selected for quarantining. Click the “Cleaning” button.
After a few seconds a message should tell you your computer will now reboot. Allow the reboot.
When the computer restarts a log file will be displayed, but if its closed for any reason before copying the contents, you will find a copy of the file if you navigate to C:\AdwCleaner[s#].txt
In many cases P2P programs also represent a risk of infection from the program itself, as some have installed adware/spyware, or other programs without consent. Even if the program itself is clean, many P2P networks are riddled with malware, and it’s often the newest, most difficult to remove malware. There are many risks associated with P2P programs, none are worth the risks. If you don’t uninstall the P2P software, we will continue to clean your system, but realize that it’s likely only a matter of time before you are infected again.
I tried to clean before with JRT but it continues. JRT and adwcleaner generated log files-

Disable your antivirus prior to this scan. Download Zoek
Save the file to your desktop.
Right click Zoek.exe and run as administrator. (XP Users double click)
Copy and paste the items in red below and paste them into Zoek.
Now hit the run script button.
The log will appear after a reboot, also you can find it on the C: drive.
Post the log in your next reply.
Download attached fixlist.txt file and save it to the Desktop. NOTE. It’s important that both files, FRST/FRST64 and fixlist.txt are in the same location or the fix will not work. NOTICE: This script was written specifically for this user, for use on that particular machine. Running this on another machine may cause damage to your operating system. Run FRST/FRST64 and press the Fix button just once and wait. If for some reason the tool needs a restart, please make sure you let the system restart normally. After that let the tool complete its run. When finished FRST will generate a log on the Desktop (Fixlog.txt). Please post it to your reply.
Hello sir, when I tried to hit RUN SCRIPT option an error called PEVZ.EXE - Application Error appeared and it contains “The application was unable to start correctly (0xc0000142). Click OK to close the application.”
Disable your anti-virus(es) and redownload Zoek and try again
Please download Geek Uninstaller and uninstall the following programs:
Quick Heal Total Security → No need to have 2 anti-viruses
WinRAR 5.30 beta 6 → Latest version is 5.50
