How to remove popup.adv.net and mtn5.goole.ws

Normally I remove the trojans and malware very easily. But the problem I got it yesterday is whenever I visit a website which has google ads or any other ads a popup window opens linking to http://popup.adv.net/popup2.php and http://mtn5.goole.ws. So I finally downloaded the software Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware and scanned my computer. It removed one entry in my registry and one exe . The below is the log file.

Registry Data Items Infected:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon\System (Rootkit.DNSChanger.H) -> Data: kdapv.exe -> Quarantined and deleted successfully.

Files Infected:E:\WINDOWS\system32\kdapv.exe (Rootkit.DNSChanger.H) -> Quarantined and deleted successfully.

Next day I opened my PC and still got the same problem and I shocked how come this malware comes from. As usual I googled and got the final solution from a website.

Here I am posting the method from this blog.

1. In the Windows menu go to Start>Run

2. Type cmd

3. This will fire up the command window

4. Type ipconfig /all

5. This will display the actual configuration of your LAN card.Pay particular attention to the DNS entry.

In my PC I got two entries:
192.168.1.100
85.255.112.15

One of this entries are not correctly formed while 85.255.112.156 is the DNS address of the exploiter. A proper DNS entry given by your ISP should look something like - 218.248.240.181. Type ipconfig /release

7. Then type ipconfig /renew

8. Then do an ipconfig /all again to check that your DNS settings have been corrected.
