This didn’t help me. All I learned is that My wdmaud isn’t bootleg. Thanks though if this helped someone.

@Wolliom – Go to my site and download TDSSKiller, sounds like a rootkit has embedded in your system

I have no issues with wdmaud or sysaudio, AVG isn’t finding any redirect viruses either – I even reformatted, and that only solved my problem for a day and then it came back.
I keep getting redirected to blackinternet dot se.

go to note pad. click on file and open: mycomputer/localC/ windows/system32/drivers/etc
once you get into the ETC folder change the Text Documents(*.txt) to All Files
Open the HOSTS file, delete everything and then youre done.

@misspratchettfan – You’re welcome. Malware keeps changing and removal methods also change. No longer do Hosts get hijacked or wdmaud get changed, it’s a bit harder now but there are many free tools which will remove the threats and I’m pleased to hear tat you have solved your problems too

SIR I COULD KISS YOU!! That bloody virus has been tormenting me for days and my host files were fine and everyone had conflicting opinions upon which program would remove it! But though the hidden file wasn’t “maud” – it was in that folder, so THANKYOU!

@GrandMasterSloth – Download Rkill, preferably the com version and suoperantispyware portable, watch my video on Avast Test for more info on Rkill, runs in cmd window and kills running malware processes, then run superantispyware, remove all threats, reboot and scan with malwarebytes

@awsome3003 – Which folder are you deleting which then comes back?
about 1 month ago
I didn’t have the wdmaud issue. Mine are signed by microsoft. Also, when I look in hosts, it doesnt show any website addresses. I am really stumped… I’m not technologically inclined. Anything I search for on yahoo or google shows me the right results, but when I click them it redirects me to an apartment finding website or some other advertisement. It also today has started with random popups suggesting fake virus protection.

is it normal to come back to the folder after i delete it?

@ peacenlove3 – Now that you have wiped it, if you can, make a backup image when everything is updated and do this regularly keeping the last two images and as a new one is created delete the oldest, much easier to restore an image than wipe everything and start again

Superantispyware times out for me err can’t download it and Malwarebytes won’t let me update. It did remove like 14 things. I have tried so many things and things won’t get it, update or even download. My 36 and drivers look right. I have no idea how to do this host stuff?

This has to be the best video I have watched TY However I can’t find anything wrong where your telling me to look. I can’t get this off my computer and it’s driving me mad

@ ihatelifejosemartine – TDSSKiller is a good tool and mbam doesn’t always find TDSS as there are many verions of it. TDSSKiller easily removes it
about 1 month ago
You’re right, I had to use TDSSKiller because MalwareBytes had indeed failed to remove a rather stubborn piece of Malware.

@ihatelifejosemartine – esagelabs do an excellent tdss remover if mbanm fails, although mbam is first choice to run as it will remove most malware
about 1 month ago
Yes, download tdsskiller and run that. Works like a charm.

@lamorlayefrance – Malwarebytes will prompt the user to reboot to finalise the removal process which includes registry items after the scan and removal process
about 1 month ago
@cotojo1253 I have Spybot running on my computer and it did not se this virus. Malwarebytes worked well and so did Hitman pro 3.5 – but make sure to restart the computer after scan to edit registry changes!
