Stressed out with chrome


Question Posted Thursday March 10 2016, 10:53 am

Hello. I'm so stressed out about google chrome. I uninstalled it 3 times from the control panel then installed it 3 times. However the problem is still there. There are a lot of pop out ads like reimageplus.com, flirchy and other sites I never heard of. Also, my home page is constantly changing from my stable google before to ask.com, mysites, and other useless bullshit. Please please help me. I feel like crying. I have so many unfinished stuff. I tried changing the google settings like over 20 times but the problem still persists. I have an antivirus though and I've read something on omnibox or an article that sounds like it, but the problem is still there. What should I do please do help me.

Hopefully,for you, I am an expert with computer.Now, What you seem to have is a spyware or an adware that is causing your browser (Chrome) pop popups and other stuff.What you need to do is follow these instructions one by one and I guarantee you that your computer will be cleaned:

1)Download NPE through this website:

2)Open it and the press "Unwanted Application Scan"

3)Wait untill the scan finishes.

4)If it finds any unwanted applications press "uninstall".

5)Restart your system.

6)Reopen NPE.exe and now press "Scan for risks".

7)Press "Restart" and then wait untill your computer opens again.

8)Then, the NPE will open automatically and will scan your computer for risks.

9)When it ends, if it finds anything your are highly advised to check everything and then press "Fix".

10)Restart your system.

That should fix your computer.But, if it dosen't follow these steps:

1)Download and Install Malwarebytes Anti-Malware through this website

3)Update the virus definitions.

That's all!

You have a virus even with the anti-viral software you have that is putting spyware etc. on your machine. It's nothing to do actually with Google Chrome except that it affects all online activity and browsers. I'm not an expert on how to get rid of it or the reimageplus.com bug. However, this place has people with said no how.

I would reach out to Dangernerd who controls this site. A bigger expert online I haven't found in computers and or consult the columnists that regularly answer tech questions. Your issue is solvable.

I do know one thing if Google Chrome came pre-installed as THE browser and not an icon that trying to erase it over and over can cause instability. This is why it still shows on your machine as being there as a critical app most likely.
