It has been a while since I had my browser hijacked.

Yes...same here.
Ever since I changed from IE to Chrome (knock on Wood) all has been working quite well.
Now that that Friday the 13th is over, even better

Re: Malware, Trojan Scanner Notes.
In my opinion ESET Online Scanner is the best malware checker for PC (I use it on Windows). Highly recommend it!

Virtualbox by oracle.. set up a test machine (on your normal machine) then you can install anything you want knowing you can _REALLY_ restore your machine back to exactly the way it was any time you want. If you are running a "normal" operating system (Win 7/8/10) then you install to your tester enviroment, run a bunch of trojan, malware, etc scanners, and if you are still happy then install again on your "real" machine. I run server 2012 as the base machine and have several choices when I power up depending on what I want to do. I would suggest AT LEAST a 500 gig data drive for storage if you are going to maintain several environments.
