hmm, I know you said that you couldn't install malwarebytes, but did you try Kaspersky? A friend of mine told me it saved his computer once
Thank you, I'll try this as well!
free & open source ☞
Thanks for the link! I haven't heard of it before, what makes you recommend it?
While I've used ClamAV and knew they had a Windows app as well as other platforms I've never heard of the above website, and it smells funny to me.
https://www.clamav.net/downloads
ClamAV has been around for years, and I'd throw caution to the wind with the above Windows executable from ClamWin......

it's listed on clamav "community projects" page: https://docs.clamav.net/manual/Installing/Community-projects.html
wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ClamWin_Free_Antivirus
their sourceforge: https://sourceforge.net/projects/clamwin/
Ah I see, that's pretty cool. Suppose it's just the look of their website that reminded me of a knock off site or something.
like ladfrombrad wrote, the project "has been around for years"
and most importantly it's free and open source
any luck ?
