How to remove Fastclick Adware off the system?

Asked By LuigiSanchez 0 points N/A Posted on - 10/01/2011

I have used many Adware and Spyware protection softwares in the past and currently I'm using the Spybot – S&D and its working great. However, when I scanned my system, I noticed that the Fastclick Adware is constantly appearing. I tried searching for solutions on how to get rid of it on the internet, but it seems not to work. I followed the instructions on the net such as to delete the registry keys and did an update of the adware/spyware definitions. But when I scanned my system after, the Fastclick adware would still appear. I deleted these registry keys but the same thing still happens.

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINEsoftwaremicrosoftwindowscurrentversionuninstalldbi

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINEsoftwaretwaintec

Am I doing something wrong? Please advice me on how to completely clean my computer from this adware activity.

 

Thanks in advance.

How to remove Fastclick Adware off the system?

If you are having some problems with your current adware detection software, just replace it. The Spybot – S&D software you are using was not able to block FastClick adware. Removing this adware manually is difficult especially if you are not an expert and it is therefore recommended to use spyware removal software or an antivirus that has the ability to scan, detect and remove adware or spyware from your computer. FastClick is an adware that secretly installs itself on the computer and has the ability to track every web activity you made and record personal information. The information is then sent to third-party advertisers who in turn will bombard your computer with lots of annoying popup advertisements.

You should always clear your browser’s history and cache frequently. This may vary depending on the browser you are using; performing this cleanup decreases the chance of personal information falling into the wrong hands. Do not click on any of the FastClick popups because you will be directed to numerous websites that will automatically download multiple programs into your computer. Once the programs are installed it can be hard to remove.

It’s useless now to update your current spyware program since you have been already penetrated with FastClick. Download other program hoping it can still remove it. Try these antivirus programs instead:

• Norton Antivirus 2012 – https://us.norton.com/downloads/
• McAfee Antivirus – https://www.mcafee.com/us/index.html
• Panda Cloud Antivirus – https://www.pandasecurity.com/usa/homeusers/solutions/free-antivirus/
