I use super anti spyware free edition and malwarebytes to scan my pc about once a week, i am also running avg free, never had any redirections no pop ups and no probs untill i activated the malwarebytes premium trial, after about 2-3 days of not even really noticing that malwarebytes premium was running and no warnings or msg's i noticed alot of warnings msg's all of a sudden from malwarebytes and now i have 5 or 6 process's running that relate to crypto spayware trojan crap, the file names are all along the lines of tmp75e4.exe, so in conclusion crypto appeared or activated around the same time the malwarebytes premium was activated, malwarebytes is not removing it and neither is superantispyware, im not sure if there is any connection or it is just a coincidence
