I LOST HOPE IN TRYING TO REMOVE THIS ITEM. I UNLOADED EVERYTHING OFF OF MY OPERATING SYSTEM AND RELOADED IT AGAIN. IT ONLY TOOK 4 HOURS!!!!! ANYWAY IT APPEARS TO HAVE TAKE CARE OF THE PROBLEM. WINFIXER WAS THE MOST ANNOYING AND MOST DIFFICULT TO REMOVE MALWARE I HAVE EVER RUN ACROSS. I JUST GOES TO SHOW, IT PAYS TO HAVE GOOD ANTIVIRUS/TROJAN/MALWARE SOFTWARE INSTALLED. THANKS FOR YOUR HELP,

You summed it up well, and a good reinstall removes ALL of the problems, for a while anyway. Sometimes that is quicker also.

I FEEL FOR ANYONE WHO HAS TO TRY TO REMOVE WINFIXER.  I DO NOT UNDERSTAND WHY THE COMPANIES ASSOCIATED WITH THIS MALWARE/ VIRUS ARE NOT PROSECUTED. THE AVERAGE PERSON WHO OWNS A COMPUTER WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO RELOAD EVERYTHING ONTO THEIR OPERATING SYSTEM. WHOEVER CAN COME UP WITH A LEGIT PIECE OF SOFTWARE THAT WILL ACTUALLY REMOVE THIS WILL MAKE TONS OF MONEY. (AT LEAST I WOULD HAVE PAID A FAIR PRICE TO KEEP FROM LOSING  MOST OF THE INFO THAT I LOST) ANYWAY, GOOD LUCK TO THOSE WHO ARE UNFORTUNATE TO COME ACROSS THIS GODFORSAKEN PIECE OF SH*T.

I remove winfixer about once or twice a week. Usually pretty *censored* easy I find. I didn't get around to looking at your post till you've already nuked it though. All you have to do is run xcleaner then the vundofix. Problem solved. Well usually, if not it may require a little hands on but I've never had too much of a problem with that one.

Are you sure it's really removed and you're not just reinfecting yourself. If not, it must be the sites you go to, or inadequate protection, or unsafe practices or all 3.
