BlackSnow176 Posted June 25, 2015 Share Posted June 25, 2015 (edited) Hey, Many months ago I was browsing the internet and downloaded some files. After I extracted one of them infected my computer with goinf.ru/ o-mi.ru. At first they kept changing my home pages in Chrome and Mozilla to something like smartinf.ru (it's still my home in Mozilla) and my search engine to a Russian one. Everytime I changed the default search engine and home page, they changed themselves back in a while. The biggest problem I have is with the goinf.ru page. When I'm browsing the internet, be it in Chrome or Mozilla, it would sometimes randomly redirect me to goinf.ru (or o-mi.ru). It has redirected me literally more than a thousand times already. I open a certain site or a link... and I'm redirected. Sometimes more often than others I searched the internet for ways to get rid of this problem, but the best solution I could find was "BlockSite" in Chrome a couple of days ago. I even got my computer to a technic (along with other problems), but he couldn't fix that problem either. It's been months now. Do you have any ideas? Index40 before I blocked it a few days ago (22.06) Index32 after I blocked it a few days ago Index40 just now This is my home page in Mozilla. It some Russian news site. Everytime I change it, it will automatically become my home again after some time. It was a part of that same virus.

sivispacem Posted June 25, 2015 Share Posted June 25, 2015 It's a sh*tty browser hijacking plugin. Malwarebyte's anti malware should get rid of it. -E Late to the party Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/803838-help-goinfru-virus/?do=findComment&comment=1067651832 Share on other sites More sharing options...
