How to Remove Ironmodal Virus

Last Updated on June 27, 2022 by Mathew Diekhake

The ironmodal virus is causing pop-ups on web browsers. These pop-ups are usually a form of adware and subsequently can be removed with an adware cleaning program. While you may even be able to remove the ironmodal virus directly from the browser’s extensions page, it’s best to run an antimalware scan still to remove any leftover remnants of the virus that may cause it to come back later.

Remove Ironmodal Virus from Chrome

You can often remove malware such as browser hijackers and adware directly from the browser you are using. Most people these days use Chrome. If you are a Chrome user, here is how to do that:

1. On your computer, open Chrome.
2. Click on the Settings and more link in the top right corner of the browser window.
3. From the Settings menu, click Advanced > Reset and clean up  > Clean up computer.
4. Click on Find to find the malware.
5. Click on Remove if Chrome finds some malware that can be removed.

You may also want to reset Chrome’s settings. Here is how to do that:

1. On your computer, open Chrome.
2. Click on the Settings and more link in the top right corner of the browser window.
3. From the Settings menu, click Advanced Reset and cleanup > Reset settings to their original defaults > Reset settings.

You can now try refreshing your browser and seeing if the pop up is gone if you like. But we also recommend you keep reading the rest of the article just in case.

Remove Ironmodal Virus with AdwCleaner

As mentioned, even though you may have removed the virus from your browser so your computer appears as though the problem is solved, it’s still possible for the developers of the malware to have left over some remnants that can aid in the malware coming back again later. So it’s best to run an antimalware scan with a dedicated program for that. Our recommendation for those with the Ironmodal virus is to run a scan with AdwCleaner. We have used this dedicated adware cleaning tool for many years, and it has never let us down — and that was before it was acquired by Malwarebytes. What’s more AdwCleaner is available for both Windows and Mac so it doesn’t matter what operating system you are using the browser on. Running a scan with AdwCleaner is simple: just click on the Scan Now button from the main GUI after you open the program.

Remove Ironmodal Virus with SpyBot Search & Destroy

Another antimalware tool we know and trust is SpyBot Search & Destroy. We recommend running a scan with SpyBot Search & Destroy if AdwCleaner didn’t manage to find any malware remnants on your computer. Few antimalware tools will give you the thorough scan that SpyBot Search & Destroy does; you just have to know how to use it. After you open the GUI, click on the Associated Tasks link in the top menu and then choose to run a scan. Once the scan has been completed, it will likely have you feeling confident all adware is detected from your computer, but we recommend reading through all the programs it has detected just in case there are some you know and trust and would like to keep. You don’t have to remove the cookies for the sites you know and trust, for example.

There are also several alternative adware removal tools you can use.

In conclusion, that is how to remove the Ironmodal virus.
