I came across a misleading.fakeav Hkey virus. Basically a trojan. I scanned for it using IObit and it found it and I thought I got rid of it but I guess not. My initial problem was I browsing youtube and out of nowhere, I'd get tossed to another video randomly withing seconds and then again and again. Really irritating. I've tried everything that I could think of with a friends help and I guess the virus has attached itself in other places other than my registry. I'm trying to figure out a way I can get rid of this manually so that I won't have to spend close to 100 dollars at a computer shop. Any links or really good descriptive help would be ideal for helping me get rid of this thing. Please and thank you. I'm not all that tech savvy.
 
I don't know how to disable system restore. I know how to have system restore done but I have a lot of files on my computer and no external drive to remove all my files off of this computer. I only have a usb and that could take me hours alone but even if I did that, if the virus attached itself to any of my file/folders, I still have the potential to place it back on my computer. with IObit I am not sure. it was recommended by a friend. I guess it comes with malware IObit fighter and advanced systemcare
