I am having trouble with adware specifically the update adobe required, I know its something dumb I did. Being kind of a beginner I would like to see if anybody has a way to find and remove this pain in the behind. I did run clamav
with 0 results, any ideas?
In more detail I have an old Dell D-500 recently tuned by our local computer person, everything had been ticking along just fine with the exception of occasional hesitation during video playback Youtube, facebook or similar, recently after loaning it to a visitor I noticed that links from facebook would display the "flashplayer update required" having read about adware virus by Adobe sites I tried a few suggested solutions with no luck.
I have installed clamav
and run complete scan with no luck, removed and re-
installed flash from Ubuntu downloads no luck, every thing else seems to be OK and can play shooter games alright, but still stuck on the playback problem. I may be completely wrong about the problem altogether just don't know what to try next.
