Chrome opening temporary file on startup

Nice1 · 25 Nov 2013 at 22:07

Having a bit of a problem with Google Chrome, when the computer boots it loads a page from the below location on my computer...

file:///C:/Users/Andrew/AppData/Local/Microsoft/Windows/Temporary%20Internet%20Files/web.html

I cannot understand why this is doing this and when i try to find the file i cannot locate it, can anyone help. Ive uninstalled chrome and reinstalled internet explorer and this random page keeps on booting up from start.

This is the script from the random page....

Well that looks dodgy as hell so I googled the domain and got this: http://blog.sucuri.net/2013/10/malware-iframe-campaign-from-sytes-net.html

So yeah looks like you got some malware, delete the file for what it's worth and start running those scanners/etc

As above I would run Malware Bytes at this point.

I have ran malwarebytes and it does not find the file, also tried to locate it manually but dont seem to find it as if it is a hidden file, am i missing a trick as to its location in temporary internet files?

If its a hidden file, turn on hidden files through the view folder options tab in windows explorer.

Run it in safe-mode. Don't forget to update the definitions before performing a full system scan.
