I have noticed that IE keeps appearing in my task manager when no program is open. It can show up multiple times. Also my Mozilla browser keeps redirecting me to random sites when I click on a link. Some links just sit there and lag. It is related to the IE issue because it stops as long as I constantly close IE in the task manager. Please lend an expert hand.

1. If you are using Firefox, make sure that your download settings are as follows:

* Tools->Options->Main tab
* Set to "Always ask me where to Save the files".

2. During the download, rename Combofix to Combo-Fix as follows:

Virus help-Internet explorer keeps appearing on task manager when IE is not open CF_download_FF

Virus help-Internet explorer keeps appearing on task manager when IE is not open CF_download_rename

3. It is important you rename Combofix during the download, but not after.
4. Please do not rename Combofix to other names, but only to the one indicated.
5. Close any open browsers.
6. We need to disable your local AV (Anti-virus) before running Combofix.

  • See HERE for how to disable your AV.
  • Double click on ComboFix.exe.
  • Follow the prompts. NOTE:
  • Allow combofix to run
  • Post C:\combofix.txt back here.

    Note:
    Do not mouse click combofix's window whilst it's running. That may cause it to stall.
