Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware Vers. 1.29

Oct 17, 2008 8:29PM PDT

Had a problem with Platte Media after inadvertently opening up a download for films, (not porn). Kept getting a Platte Account icon on my desktop and popups asking for payment. None of my existing security measures would delete including Malwarebytes. CNet downloads sent me an email 17/10/08 informing me of updates to Mal,Vers. 1.29 which I downloaded and ran. This sucessfully deleted all Platte malware including trojans etc. As yet have had no re-infection. Hoping this is of use to other sufferers.
