    Referring to the first two postings in this thread, browser ad and JavaScript blocking extensions and the like would not have prevented this activity.

    It appears something was installed manually. It could have be standalone software. If it was then the following were applicable:

    1. The software was installed prior to Eset being installed.

    2. Eset's PUA protection was/is not enabled.

    3. Eset's PUA detection was ignored and the poster allowed the software installation.

    Another possibility is the poster either explicitly or inadvertently installed a browser extension that contains the javacript code being detected.

    It can be virtually any html code. Sometimes it could be even FP so without further investigation it's impossible to tell. In case we're unable to reproduce the detection, we will be able to tell more only by checking files in user's quarantine.

    Running Superantispyware the problem is resolved.

    I do not know what exactly it was as it detected some 488 adware etc but now Chrome runs smoothly and fast.

    It is bad that Eset NOD32 could not detect it as I run a thorough in depth scan...

    uBlock Origin should be better and run more light , better than the Adblock versions

    when you add uMatrix , a lot of things will stop working in websites or websites will start looking broken , like even in this forum , if you use it , all of the things that do use Javascript will be stopped unless you allow them.

    It helps because if you visit a dodgy website it won't be able to throw all of the malicious JS at you.

    Great! thank you!

    Try to add uBlock Origin to your browser and most of these should be blocked from the adblocker(uBlock) because it would prevent them from loading in the first place

    If you are really paranoid about Javascript in websites and want to prevent them from loading unless you instruct your browser to load them then add also uMatrix.

    I have the "AdBlock" extension to Chrome. But I will try that too!

    Thanks!

    Firstly I'd reccomend a speed test to see what speed your net is. Might be just slow in general. You could try also reinstalling chrome, clearing its cache, history etc 

    If a dodgy AV has found an infection there's a high chance its could be a false positive.  Many dodgy AVs will detect non existent viruses to trick you into buying with some even installing the virus to make you buy

    I run Superantispyware and the problem seems fixed for now.

    We will see. Thanks for the info! yes I know about the dodgy antispyware applications.

    "JS/ScrInject.b virus is a highly dangerous virus." This must be a joke since it's rather the opposite. It's a very generic detection that may trigger false positives at times.

    By the way: 

    wipersoft_setup_1_1_1100.exe » INNO » {app}\wipersoft.exe - a variant of Win64/WiperSoft.A potentially unwanted application

    The website in question is also blocked as scam and it indeed resembles tech support scams.

     

     I have all these symptoms: slow internet, very slow Chrome, Facebook running very slow...

     

    What can I do?
