Notes:
Work the instructions step by step. It all looks more complicated than it is.
Since the browser will be renewed and the PC reboots, so it makes sense to the Web address these instructions to send itself via e-mail

Please guide the proposed programs as an administrator. This means: Right-click on the downloaded .exe file and select "Run as Administrator" to

Windows: run programs as administrator

All proposed programs are either free or 30-day trials (also free). You have to pay anything!

Step 0:
Download the RKill. This tool stops all malicious processes on the computer. Is cleaned with the tools that I list below. RKill is only a tool to trick the virus.
Rename the downloaded .exe file to any other name. This is just a precaution, because many malicious programs that try to hinder the RKill from running. If the RKill not start despite rename, rename it to winlogon.exe in.
Start the RKill and let it run through completely until the message "RKill Finished" is displayed.

RKill is finished

Step 1:
IObit Uninstaller Install the (Download Chip.de, download from the manufacturer's website). This is a free program that helps it completely unnecessary programs to uninstall. Here, a restore point is always created so you can do all the operations undone if it goes wrong.

IObit Uninstaller

Uninstall IObit Uninstaller now with all suspicious programs, particularly if they have been installed recently (you can install it by date Sort). It is better, all that was recently installed to remove it.

In particular, uninstall Wsys Control or Extended Protection
Other unwanted programs could read: Wsys Control, Extended Protection eSave Security Control, "Softonic Web Search," "Conduit", "Softonic Web Search on IE and Chrome," "Superfish", "Yontoo", "FBPhotoZoom", "IncrediBar "" Rolimno "," Globososo "," Special Savings "," AVG Toolbar "," BrowseToSave "," Browser Defender "," TidyNetwork "," WebCake "or similar.

Uninstall it.

If there is nothing suspicious here, then immediately passed to step 2.

Step 2:
I list several very good programs with which you can remove toolbars, trojans and spyware. Install and run all proposed programs one at a time.

Info: Note here that before the start of each pruning program, the RKill should be started again.

Use Malwarebytes Anti Malware

Scan your system to finish it and remove all that was found.

Install AdwCleaner (direct download from the manufacturer's website), the program is a good adware Checker and uninstaller. Before you start off AdwCleaner (do not forget: Run as Administrator), close all browsers and programs. Click then so will your system be searched and then you get a list of programs found displayed on "Search". Then you click on the "Delete" button. Finally, you have to restart your system.

Junkware Removal Tool run. The program can sometimes take up to 15 minutes until it is finished. So be patient.

Install Avast Browser Cleanup

Start the program. Choose from any browser that you want to clean up. It will automatically detect and delete the toolbars.

Attention! The scan with the ESET Online Scanner takes a relatively long time, so this scan can be performed completely at the end.

Install the ESET Online Scanner and scan your system. This can take quite some hours, but worth it!

Step 3:
I reset your browser to also remain really no residues. Warning, this all browser settings to be reset to its original state and delete bookmarks. Make a backup (backup) of your bookmarks when you need it later.

Make backup for Internet Explorer, Chrome, Firefox

Instructions: Reset Internet Explorer
Instructions: Reset Firefox

Instructions: Google Chrome browser undo

Step 4.1: (Moderately important)
After you reset the browser, you only have to check whether the browser shortcuts were contaminated displayed with extra entries. This prevents undesirable home pages are loaded at startup browser. This step is very important !!

Free browser-linking of additional entries: Instructions
Step 4.2: (Optional)
If you have further problems with the Internet Explorer home page, then you can still change the home page via a registry entry

Instructions: Change Internet Explorer page in Star Registry
Manually change the home page in Google Chrome Browser

Change to Google Chrome: Manual
Step 4.3: (Optional)
Uninstall Firefox and Chrome browser using the Control or even better with IObit Uninstaller above. Because with the IObit Uninstaller, you can uninstall programs completely.
Install Firefox now and again. (Please only download from the official Firefox page)
Install Chrome now and again. (Please only download from the official Google Chrome browser)
Step 4.4: (Optional)
If no improvement is still occurred, then try your system to a previous restore point reset (manual). It is quite possible that some restore points that were created prior to infection are present, since some programs create even those points.
Step 5:
If problems persist, Poste a new question or leave a comment here (first you have to register). But please only work through all the instructions and do not miss any steps.
Step 6:
Leave a Google Plus, Facebook Like or Subscribe to our newsletter and receive regular tips and tricks about computers, smart phones and the Internet.
Tip:
If you install a program the next time, make sure that it comes from a trusted source. Moreover, one should be very careful during installation because many "free" programs try to install other unwanted tools.

Recommendation:
If you safer on the computer and added protection against unnecessary toolbars would like to have, then I recommend ESET Smart Security is a top security software. In Gegensatzt to other antivirus solutions ESET load on the system only minimal, but increases the safety extreme. In life, a modern suit worth especially with the advent of ransomware (viruses that encode everything and ransom decrypt)

They can take 30 days free trial. I use the software as well.

 

If you install ESET, then activate the detection of potentially unwanted software. This option has personally saved me a lot of trouble with unwanted browser toolbars.
