The last thing I need is another "Shick Hydro" ad pretending to be part of the webpage...This adware is preventing me from downloading anti-malware. I downloaded the installer on a flash drive, but this virus is also preventing me from installing it. When I try to run the installer, it closes after it "Initializes" it...I'm stuck, I have no clue what to do.

Keep in mind:

Can't go to anti-malware producing sites. (Says, "The page cannot be displayed because an internal server error has occurred.")

Can't install the anti-malware through USB

I can't stand these fu**ing Shick Hydro ads any longer...
 
Solution
If you can boot into safe mode with networking, download and run Combofix. Doesn't work with Windows 10 though if you have it.
