How i stop commercials on sites?

How do I stop these Phishing sites?

  • I keep getting hijacked by these phishing sites (loanpuma.com, gamblingpuma.com, envoyne.info). I tried different programs and the one that has seemingly worked so far is Spybot Search and Destroy. Though this time with the envoyne.info one Spybot did not get it. What can I do to get rid of these once and for all? Also StopZilla I have to pay for and I don't think that it will do anything different. Also for some additional information on this problem, it takes a google search and goes through their site instead and it blocks the google related sites (youtube, gmail,etc.) It also blocks sites that may help get rid of it. Please help me this is a new computer and I don't want these problems anymore. O also I have a Netgear wireless router and it seems to go through wireless to other devices as well. It even got on my girlfriend's iPod Touch when she went through google on wireless.

    You have more likely than not got a Rootkit. A complete pain to get rid of. this generic attack on the infection should put things right. this is for windows 7 so if you have XP the the folder locations will be slightly different, i am sure you will work it out. First click on Start > Run. Type in the following into the open box. devmgmt.msc then Click on OK. This will run Device Manager. In Device Manager, click on View > Show Hidden Devices. expand all the devices by clicking on the "Plus" sign. Now try to find TDSSserv.sys or clbdriver.sys or oUltraf or seneka.sys, right click on whatever one you found and select Disable. make sure that you do not select the Un-Install option otherwise infection will be back once you reboot your computer. if none of them are there do not worry, it could be something simpler but follow what comes next. you will have to enable view hidden folders in, folder options > view. Delete everything in the windows temp folder, C > Windows > Temp Delete all cookies, Delete all temporary internet files(not to be confused with windows temp files) these are best deleted via your internet browsers. it will save you messing about in the the hidden system files reset internet explorer, tools > internet options > Advanced tab > reset . Delete everything in the prefetch folder. C > Windows > Prefetch Delete the hosts file, C > Windows > System32 > drivers > etc > HOSTS A clean hosts file will be written by windows when you reboot later. Note: if you were using a custom Hosts file you will need to replace any of those entries yourself. Delete the flash cookies found in the macromedia, #Shared Objects folder. c > users > "your name" > App Data > Roaming > macromedia > Flash player > #Shared Objects delete everything you find in the #Shared Objects folder last lot to delete, navigate to c > users > "your name" > App Data > Local > Temp delete everything in the Temp folder.

I have the exact same problem and I've had 3 IT guys assault my computer (one of which used to create viruses and I'm still hijacked. At this point its time to slash and burn. If you set up separate partitions for c drive, applications and data the next time it happens torching your c drive will be painless. There is another possibility though.... I updated my Belkin router software about the same time all this happened. I wonder if its possible my router software itself has been hijacked rather than my computer?

Is your computer actually geting hijacked or are you receiving SPAM mail from these sites? If you are receiving SPAM from these sites, set them to Junk/Spam. You must keep setting these sites to SPAM/Junk for your E-Mail to learn which sites are SPAM and which are not. Check you SPAM/Junk folder every day and delete everything that is SPAM and mark legitimate E-Mail Not SPAM/Junk. Set up your Firewall to block these sites. Also, make sure your router is password protested and the wireless is secure. Google the model number of your router for instructions haow to properly set it up. Example: router model number setup

If your computer really is getting hijacked, then the best way to solve it is to back up your data, then format your HD and reinstall the OS. While it is possible to remove infections from your computer, the only way to be sure is to blow away the OS and reinstall. viruses and root kits have a nearly zero percent chance of surviving a proper reinstall. A side benefit is that you get a clean, fast system out of it. Over time, windows gains a lot of crap and a reinstall removes it. Set up your router to use OpenDNS instead of your ISP's DNS servers. Sign up for an account. There are settings there that will, among other things, thwart known phishing sites from getting access.
