I was watching a CBS day-time show in early eve on CBS.com when a box -- identical to the real McCoy -- appeared advising my Flash player needed updating. Stupid me clicked it -- and acquired a real nasty Malware which had the title, "Chitka" appearing. I tried everything I could think of to get rid of it when I came across a suggestion to download and try "Norton Power Eraser." What might I lose?, so I did. Much to my VERY pleasant surprise, NPE found a file named, "hookeron3.exe" and erased it. The malware is gone!!! (I own/use Norton Internet Security, Lavasoft Ad-Aware, and Malware-bytes -- none of which prevented or wiped it out; I was all set :-( to spend $75.00 at local computer store -- their fixed rate virus-removal fee -- a day after I got lucky learning of and employing NPE. (whew!))
THANK YOU, NORTON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
