Got a threat from a phishing site

    Accidentally I clicked a phishing site(sony04.t35.com). Now I'm not able to access facebook. That site has probably put a malware,trojan or a spyware on my PC. I use Eset Smart Security as an antivirus software,but it finds nothing when I scan my PC. Pls reccomend me a software to remove that malware or tell me something else that can help me solve this problem. Thanks.

    Check your hosts file?
    Windows:
    C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc\hosts
    Linux:
    /etc/hosts

    Anything look strange?

    Found this on a site and it works :

    Go to C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc\

    open ''hosts'' file with notepad

    delete :
    79.106.2.131 localhost
    79.106.2.131 facebook.com
    79.106.2.131 www.facebook.com

    then go to your browser and delete cookies and cache

    There you go.! you can sign in to facebook again!!!!!
