WHITESMOKE VIRUS WINDOWS
I cannot access windows or Microsoft update, nor any of their security sites. But more importantly, all this did something to Windows update. When I'm on the internet I get redirected ALOT, especially when doing searches from Google, ( I use Firefox ), and there are also other little things I've noticed here and there that are a nuisance. There are still 43 things in quarantine that, frankly, I don't know whether to delete or not. I'm still not able to reboot it, and have to shut it down manually. She ran it 5 times because the computer wouldn't reboot. Once that was done she installed Malwarebytes and ran it.
WHITESMOKE VIRUS INSTALL
However, we also noticed an icon for whitesmoke on the desktop, and before she could get to the internet to install Malwarebytes, (I had Spybot, but it wasn't working,) she had to go into the add/remove programs in the control panel and uninstall palladium pro and whitesmoke. My daughter had this same problem a few months back with palladium pro and got my computer back to Windows. It took over my computer originally, and I couldn't get back into Windows.
WHITESMOKE VIRUS PC
Question 802.11AC adapter "resets" when connecting to 5GHz network, works fine on 2.My pc was infected with something called palladium pro and whitesmoke. Question ASUS Wifi Adaper AC68 connected but no internet ? Question Can I "spread out" bandwidth on a 1GB Fiber connection? Question Which router is right for me with over 50 connected devices? Question My computer keeps losing internet connection despite using extenders ? Question Connected device not showing up in DHCP client table and only receiving IPv6 address I just don't know what to do now, if anyone has any ideas please help, thanks. I haven't tried connecting through ethernet because we only have one port and it's too far away, and even if it worked I cant have my computer lying around the front room or a long cable going through the house. I've tried turning my firewall on and off without any effect. I have done AVG scans and malwarebytes scans which discovered 233 'whitesmoke' virus's or whatever it is, but they were quarantined. Other devices such as my brothers laptop and phone connected fine an yielded normal speedtest results. I phoned them up and did some tests and my internet seemed to be good enough to browse but gaming unplayable still. I temporarily fixed the problem by typing 'ipconfig /flushdns' into CMD, this would make my gameplay playable for about 5 minutes before the ping rocketing up again requiring me to type it in again. I have tried changing the DNS settings to to 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 but it made no difference. My game ping is much higher than speedtest ping. My speedtests vary wildly most the time getting a good ping but terrible up/down, and when in game servers my connection will fluctuate from around 70ms to around 400ms to even over 1000 at some points (On Europe servers which should be fine), making it unplayable. I had been using a tncap usb wifi adapter for about 2 years before my connection started going funny, then the device stopped working about 2 weeks ago so I went and bought the netgear device but my connection problems carried on. Wifi adapter is Netgear N300 usb mini adapter Within the last 2 weeks my internet on my pc has become unusable at times, streaming and gaming is extremely slow and I occasionally lose all connection.
