    Adobe Updater Virus Help

    This has been annoying the hell out of me for about 3 days now. This is a family computer so I'm not sure who got the virus or where they got it. I have tried allot of things to get rid of it but none have worked. When I find its location and delete it which is always in temp it just re-appears in temp after about 5 minutes. I've run malware bytes which usually works for these things 3 times and it never gets it. It also redirects all my web searches having to do with adobe updater etc.. If I go off the cp for about 2 hours and come back there are usually like 150 of these windows open on my screen....Any fixes?

    Sorry missed that part as it was hard to read due to the image. Turns out after a bit of research it is a legitimate application. If you had googled this you could've easily found the simple answer.

    1. Uninstall flash player
    2. Install latest flash player

    I don't think it's a virus, I'm almost certain.
    Just update it or disable Adobe from starting up in msconfig so it won't ask you again.

    If you have a search hijacker, that's totally unrelated to this topic and it will most likely redirect most of your searches if not all.
    Search hijackers can usually easily be removed by deleting the saved Internet explorer profile (on windows 7 probably in roaming > internet explorer)

    If it still doesn't work I can easily fix via teamviewer if you want.
