softwareupdaterlp MALWARE
Ok, there is a nasty piece of malware floating around the web so I thought I'd post the solution to the problem here.

This malware may be keying off certain ads on CP but the ads themselves shouldn't be an issue. Google is claiming to have fixed the previous ad hijack/redirect issue that we saw.

OK, to fix this for PC check this...

http://malwaretips.com/blogs/remove-...rlp-com-virus/

For Mac check this...

https://discussions.apple.com/thread/6802324


Please post here if the problem gets resolved or if it persists. If you have never had the problem (I have yet to see it) then feel free to ignore this.

I had it for a day on my current computer, but haven't seen it since (probably about a week ago). I've not run any kind of anti-malware or similar software to try and fix it or anything - it just went away on its own.

I'll let you know if I see it again, though.

It may still be there and just hasn't had anything trigger it. (specific ads, etc)

The more I have looked into these issues it appears that it may be so damn hard to nail down because it is a combination of local malware and ads with "triggers" in them. This two stage approach makes it MUCH harder to detect and I have a feeling a lot of antivirus and antimalware programs are scrambling to catch up. This is my working theory right now. I could be completely off base though.

Yeah, I've seen it here on CP. It would either redirect to the download or just close out the page. I turned "warn me if redirect" back on in FF and it stopped.

I scanned my computer (Mac) with two different antivirus packages after I reported that redirect to you tonight, and they both came back clean, so I am inclined to think it wasn't on my end. Who knows though.

I ran AdwareMedic then Avast on the Mac and reset the browsers and looked for extensions like they did in the link you sent me. Neither found anything and there was no extensions to be seen in Safari but so far it hasn't tried to redirect me.

Thanks for the tips! MalwareBytes scanning my computer now, looks like there were several things on there that my Kaspersky didn't catch.

It said I needed to download upgraded software because my computer was in danger, so naturally, I installed it. I'm assuming I shouldn't have?
