This page mentions three products that it claims will remove it. I can
vouch for Malwarebytes as being pretty good about that kind of thing,
but I haven't run into your particular problem so I can vouch for it
being able to remove this bug. It's worth a try.

Follow their directions, but please download the software from the
original manufacturer's site, NOT from the above web page.

https://www.malwarebytes.org/

I have used malwarebytes and it has cleaned up the problems I have had
with my computer.

I use it in conjunction with McAfee Total protection. McAfee runs
continuously, and I periodically run Malwarebytes.

There is no excuse not to be running an antivirus program. There are
many free ones that will automatically update the virus profile without
your input.

The one that I put on my sister in law's computer was Avast and has kept
it clean. If you do a search for Free antivirus software, and then do a
little research for the best, (there are strong opinions on the pros and
cons of all of them.)


Some of the large companies like McAfee offer free virus scans.

Here is a review of the free programs

But as said by a previous post, ONLY download from the manufacture's
site.
