How to remove a virus - Bill Gates - 01-14-2014

First download Malware bytes which you can download Here
After you download malwarebytes open it up and click to do a quick scan. After some time the scan should be completed and it tells you if your infected. Click on the bottom right box that says "show results" Click on the box next the name of the infected files then click remove. After you did this reboot your computer and do a other scan to see if a infection is still there. Use AdwCleaner you can get AdwCleaner Here Once you download AdwCleaner run and and click scan. Give it some time and the scan should be over. After you scan is complete click clean and after it's done a box should pop up saying if you want to reboot your computer. Click yes and reboot your computer. Once you computer is back up and running do a other malwarebytes scan to see if the virus is gone.
If you have tried both AdwCleaner and Malwarebytes and it's still not going away try JRK which you can download Here Follow the instrution that it says and wait for it to be finish. After it's done reboot you computer and do a other malwarebytes scan.

If you are still having trouble you can message me and ill do my best to help you.

Not a fruitful tutorial at all.

This isn't really a great guide, most viruses can hide from your typical anti-virus or anti-malware programs.

Also, Malware Bytes has been known to love some traces behind.

I will be writing a proper guide soon.

Worst tutorial I've seen on that forum so far. 0/10
Let's see if I can find one that is worst. Also, this should be closed or even junked.
