<![CDATA[How to remove the youareanidiot.cc trojan from my browser?]]>Hello. I opened youareanidiot.cc for fun, and toggled popups to see what happens. And my browser got forkbombed. And it's stuck as that. Is there a way to remove the tab or at least remove all tabs without having to open the browser?

Then select the browser and end task.

This action will eliminate all tabs and windows associated with it.

Use ad aware cleaner. It can find and eliminate such browser malware better than antivirus
