Like the title says I was on gog downloaded some torrent now RAV Vpn,VPN by RAV and Safer Web appeared out of nowhere and cant uninstall. I keep clicking uninstall but its not leaving im losing my mind rn please help me
Bit defender and Malwarebytes time! Maybe fresh install.
Also you really need to stick to r / piracy mega thread. To my understanding you don’t download a torrent, you torrent it through an app like qbittorrent. The act of torrenting is downloading something that’s decentralized on a bunch of people’s computers instead of downloading it from a server like you would with a steam game
The programs you have installed are classified as potentially unwanted software. These programs are not malicious, but can appear be on your computer without your consent. Some of them are known to deliver ads, bundle additional software, have questionable privacy policies or perform browser hijacking.
Here is what you can try on your own to get rid of it:
- Download and run AdwCleaner, let it remove any adware and PUP
- Download and run ESET online scanner
- Select a Full Scan
- Select Enable ESET to detect and quarantine potentially unwanted applications
Reset your browsers. You may have to save your bookmarks first if you want to keep them. Links:
- Export bookmarks Chrome
- Reset Chrome
- Export bookmarks Edge
- Reset Edge.
- Export bookmarks Firefox
- Reset Firefox
Restart the computer and check if the problem persists
Use Revo Uninstaller
I have norton is that gonna remove ? Im sorry im really awful at tech Im not used to having computers, Ltely ive been playing wolverine and deadpool , But rn Im tryna play the arkham games in order but The difference between the arkham and the two other games I downloaded , The arkham Was a torrent and Im not very familiar with it but I thought Id be able to solve it if it went south but I couldnt
You can download a .torrent file if you can’t use magnets.
I’m sure Safer Web is popupware for a lack of a better name
Thank you so much bro this helped me out! I was literally losing my mind, you are a life saver!
Norton’s kinda doo Doo fire. I wouldn’t trust it. But yeah look at the mega thread, and look for fit girls repacks. But just so you know every antivirus flags anything piracy related, and cracked as malicious. So you gotta trust where your downloading things from. So yeah. Use mega thread. To solve your current issue. Bitdefender first. Malwarebytes after. Make sure to do full deep scans of both
I wanna add, if you aren’t paying for a game (and thus don’t have a job) I’m going to assume you have free time. If you have free time you can afford to research sailing the seas safely, and learning the dos and donts
No problem, glad it helped. I would also download and scan with malwarebytes just to be sure there is nothing else on your system.
Thanks Ill definitely check it out!
