Do you keep getting a page to say microsoft has found an issue with your pc and all your files are going to be removed?
Firstly don't panic, press CTRL+ALT+DELETE together this will bring up the task manager, right click on your browser and select end task, this will close the browser down. Nothing will happen its just a scam so don't worry.
I had this for months, i've tried all the ususal scans, I think I must have downloaded every spyware removal tool there is. Nothing worked. But after doing a bit of research and finding out where the annoying pop up was coming from I simply blocked that site in the host file and that seemed to work. Blocking a site in the host file blocks it on all browsers.
Ok step by step to rid yourself of this
- You will need administrator permissions to do this Click here to find out how to set up an admin account
- Login as your admin
- Open File explorer and go to this directory C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\
- Open the hosts file right click on the file and select open in notepad
- after the very last line move your cursor to the end of the line and press enter
- then type this exactly the line below 127.0.0.1 www.46.101.43.127
- Save and close the file, this will block the website from ever opening, then go back to your normal user and hey presto no more annoying popup from these guys.
I did this 4 days ago and haven't been bothered since. Before it was happening 4 or 5 times a day really annoying. However today another one popped up i've added the following to my host page as well 127.0.0.1 www.amazonaws.com Keep checking back here if any others come up i will add them.
