I have no clue whats going on.
Yesterday, when I went onto my bank website, using IE (8 I think?) I have
windows vista - I was searching for general info, after I had logged in. But
a "Webwasher - Notification" page stopped me from looking at the webpage. So
I logged out of my online bank, and searched for the info again on the bank
search bar and the same thing happened. Notification reads:
Notification

Name: McAfeeGW: Unwanted.MyWebSearch.gen!92
URL: "httpwww.xxxxxx" (I deleted url in this message for privacy)
McAfee isnt even installed on this laptop, or any virus protection for that
matter (so I know there is a risk for virus/spyware etc) I just want to
remove whatever it is.
I did a full scan using windows defender, which failed to find anything...
I have used the online banking many times without issue, until yesterday
I may have installed ActiveX recently for facebook games - if thats the
cause
Thanks
