Anti-Firefox Spy-ware blocks Firefox completely

Posted on October 31st, 2007 in browser,hacks,maintainance,news by Ankit Duseja

There are many Anti-Firefox people growing up on the internet. Mostly they are those who hate a Firefox plugin that blocks Ads on websites. This finally decreases the revenue from their sites.

So some crazy guys have developed a anti-firefox spyware which completely blocks the access to Firefox on the infected system. These guys just want to oppose that ad-block plugin & for that they have created a trouble for some decent users. It even blocks the ways to reinstall or uninstall the Firefox & my dad’s system had been luckily got infected by it.

My Struggle
I started the struggle to remove it. I thought that it may be simple (but it was not). Opening the Firefox was impossible now to open Firefox. So I tried to start firebox in safe mode. But again it failed now i realized firefox.exe is completely corrupted. So i thought of uninstalling it but that too was not possible.

It even blocks the access to Mozilla Firefox installation folder. Even exploring that folder didn’t worked. So I finally manged to delete it without opening that folder (Simple, but it took me a long tie to find the method to get it out).

After it I tried to re-install Firefox, so I opened Internet Explorer & went to Mozilla website & tried to download Firefox. But it also blocked the download (Can you believe it?). Finally I installed Ad-Aware Free Version, but it also failed to remove it.

This is the limit of spy-ware creation & its now seems like it is impossible to get Firefox back on that system. I’m still searching for a solution, if anyone knows about it please drop a comment to this post. I will inform you if I find any solution, so keep reading here.

UPDATE: Here is the solution for the above problem
