aliexpress redirect malware
first i want to thank you guys for this great anti -virus
second i wanna ask about aliexpress redirect malwares
because i was having a lot of trouble trying to figure out why when i start out my PC
it opens firefox and redirect it to aliexpress site
and i don't know why bit defender doesn't pick it up
when i got time to do my search i found it something is manipulating the task scheduler
and i delete anything that ends with site..i broke things but the redirect is gone!
but after that i install iobit advanced systemcare>>and this morning when i start up my PC
It try to redirect and bit defender prevent it! log(firefox.exe attempted to establish a connection relying on an unmatching security certificate to login.aliexpress.us. We blocked the connection to keep your data safe since the used certificate was issued for a different web address than the targeted one.)
my questions:
is bitdefender free protect the task schedule?
2.and how to get rid of aliexpress redirect malware because i don't know if its from iobit advanced systemcare because i found it add 3 tasks 2 of them Ads pop-up and i deleted them😑
or other apps or maybe extensions on Firefox😓
thanks again😁

Check if below steps helps you in any way.

2) Open run command and run below command one by one:

3) Restart your PC in general mode by unticking the option that you selected to run the system in safe mode and then click apply.
4) Reset your browsers:

5) Now, to be on a safer side, I would also advise you to run these portable scanners which do not require any installation
* Download and run Malwarebytes AdwCleaner (https://www.malwarebytes.com/adwcleaner)
* ESET Online Scanner (https://download.eset.com/com/eset/tools/online_scanner/latest/esetonlinescanner.exe)
* Download and run a scan with Kaspersky Virus Removal Tool (https://devbuilds.s.kaspersky-labs.com/devbuilds/KVRT/latest/full/KVRT.exe). Make sure you checkmark System Memory, Startup Objects, Boot Sectors & System Drive before running a scan.
6) Perform a full system scan with bitdefender.
