Malwarebytes did find winfixer... Took only 45 minutes though


Malwarebytes did get rid of Winfixer, but not 100%. I still have to get rid of a blank icon in my system tray. Now, had I run the Vundo fix I had posted last night, I would have been up and running with in minutes, not 45 minutes. Ccleaner still sucks and does nothing.

BTW, I started this at 3:30 and ended at about 5:10.
So if I understand you CORRECTLY, anybody capable of doing a simple download and install can fix the problem WITHOUT the ridiculous complexity of running hijack this and posting the results, then waiting for some propellerhead to interpret them and devise some mystical fix. Would that be correct? If he ran Malwarebytes & Ccleaner last night he would have been done in how long did you say?

PS: Norton is for folks that don't know any better.
