Did you just get a pop-up from russian-girls.tv and wonder where it came from? Did the russian-girls.tv ad appear to have been launched from a web site that under normal circumstances don’t use advertising such as pop-up windows? Or did the russian-girls.tv pop-up show up while you clicked a link on one of the big search engines, such as Google, Bing or Yahoo?<\/p>\n

Here’s how the russian-girls.tv pop-up looked like when I got it on my computer:<\/p>\n

Does this sound like what you see your system, you probably have some adware installed on your computer that pops up the russian-girls.tv ads. So there’s no use contacting the site owner. The advertisements are not coming from them. I’ll try help you with the russian-girls.tv removal<\/strong> in this blog post.<\/p>\n

If you have been visiting this blog already know this, but if you are new: Recently I dedicated a few of my lab machines and wilfully installed some adware programs on them. I’ve been following the behaviour on these systems to see what kinds of advertisements that are displayed. I’m also looking on other interesting things such as if the adware updates itself automatically, or if it downloads and installs additional unwanted software on the computers. I first observed the russian-girls.tv pop-up on one of these lab computers.<\/p>\n

russian-girls.tv resolves to the 63.219.179.80 address.<\/p>\n

So, how do you remove the russian-girls.tv pop-up ads<\/strong>? On the machine where I got the russian-girls.tv ads I had WNet<\/strong>, CashReminder<\/strong>, ActSys<\/strong> and Plain Savings<\/strong> installed. I removed them with FreeFixer<\/a> and that stopped the russian-girls.tv pop-ups and all the other ads I was getting in Mozilla Firefox.<\/p>\n

The problem with this type of pop-up is that it can be initiated by many variants of adware. This makes it impossible to say exactly what you need to remove to stop the pop-ups.<\/p>\n

Anyway, here’s my suggestion for the russian-girls.tv ads removal:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Check what programs you have installed in the Add\/Remove programs dialog in the Windows Control Panel. Do you see something that you don’t remember installing or that was recently installed?<\/li>\n
  2. How about your browser add-ons. Anything in the list that you don’t remember installing?<\/li>\n
  3. If that didn’t solve the problem, I’d recommend a scan with FreeFixer<\/a> to manually track down the adware. FreeFixer is a freeware tool that I’m working on that scans your computer at lots of locations, such as browser add-ons, processes, Windows services, recently modified files, etc. If you want to get additional details about a file in the scan result, you can click the More Info link for that file and a web page will open up with a VirusTotal<\/a> report which will be very useful to determine if the file is safe or malware:\n
