[Closed] How to remove YourPrivacyGuard & Ultimate Defender

I have to admit that this technical stuff is intimidating, but was encouraged through work to give this a go. I am a newbie, so patience is greatly appreciated. Sure looks like your team knows what they are doing…. Thanks in Advance

Hello pgubersky,

Welcome to the forum, do this please.

Download and install Trendmicros Hijackthis

Download the Trendmicro Hijackthis Installer, follow defauts and it will install in C:\Program Files\Trendmicro\Hijackthis and this is exactly where we want it to be.

• Open HJT Scan and Save a Log File, it will open in Notepad
• Go to Format and make sure Wordwrap is Unchecked
• Go to Edit> Select All…..Edit > Copy and Paste the new log into this thread by using the Post Reply and not start a New Thread.

DO NOT have HijackThis fix anything yet. Most of what it finds will be harmless or even required.



Then run just Option 1 for this tool.

Please download SmitfraudFix
Extract the content (a folder named SmitfraudFix) to your Desktop.

Open the SmitfraudFix folder and double-click smitfraudfix.cmd
Select option #1 - Search by typing 1 and press "Enter"; a text file will appear, which lists infected files (if present).
Please copy/paste the content of that report into your next reply.


Let me see the Smitfraud log and a HJT log please
