Premiumplay Codec C


Recommended Posts

Hi all

I have the a codec c add-on running on Internet Explorer. It won't allow me to disable it and Add/Remove Progams won't allow me to uninstall it.

I have an up-to-date version of malwarebytes but a full scan still doesn't find it.

How can I get rid of it? I'm not very techie, so hoping you can help me!! :)

thanks & best wishes

Hi, MissRibena and welcome to MBAM:

We cannot work on malware removal in this section of the forums, so please read below for assistance with cleaning your system.

IMPORTANT: Please do NOT use any temporary file cleaners unless instructed to do so - they can cause data loss, making it hard to recover your system.

IF YOU WOULD LIKE EXPERT ASSISTANCE WITH MALWARE REMOVAL, PLEASE CHOOSE ONE OF THE FOLLOWING 3 OPTIONS:

OPTION 1: Free, one-on-one, expert assistance in the Malware Removal Forum.

OPTION 2: For paid users of MBAM PRO, free, one-on-one, expert assistance from MBAM support.

OPTION 3: Fee-based, one-on-one, expert assistance from Premium Support.

OPTION 1:

  • Please print out, read and carefully follow the instructions in the "I'm Infected - What Do I Do Now?" article.
  • If the infection has so crippled the computer that you cannot complete some or all of the steps, then just do the best you can and start a new topic as described below.

  • Then please start a new post in the Malware Removal Forum.
  • When starting your new post, please note the following:
  • Please do NOT post in a topic started by someone else, even if their problem sounds similar.
  • Please COPY/PASTE the requested logs into your post, rather than attaching them.
  • Under options, please be sure to select "track this topic" and "immediate email notification", so you'll know when a helper responds.

  • Please be patient - it may be 48 hours or more before a helper can assist you, especially when the forum is very busy.
  • Please do NOT "bump" your topic or reply back to it for at least 48 hours.
  • Doing so may cause your topic to be overlooked, as it will appear that you are already being helped.

<kibbitz> @ MissRebina

Try restarting system in Safe Mode or Safe Mode with Networking (tap F8-function key when pc is first starting) in case you can't do the disable in normal mode.

It would have helped if you noted your version of Windows & also Internet Explorer ( IE 7, 8, or 9 ??)

The thing is to attempt to disable the add-on (if indeed it is one [and not a rogue]) is to use Intenet Explorer, then select Tools, then Manage Addons.

Then look for the addon at issue, select it, and do a disable.

Thanks, Maurice Naggar!

(I think this might be some sort of rogue? There seems to be at least a few folks working at BC now to try to remove it:

http://www.bleepingc...opic447422.html & http://www.bleepingc...opic447403.html & http://www.bleepingc...pic447296.html. I saw quite a lot of info about removing it from Firefox, but not much about IE. Anyway, that's why I pointed the OP to the malware removal section. :) Sorry if that was not correct.)

MissRibena:

Please follow Maurice Naggar's expert advice. :)

daledoc1 (sorry for the confusion)
