Got that virus which inserts a window into my browsers (Opera and Firefox),
suggesting to send a SMS somewhere to get e removal code - how is this virus
called and what are the remedies?

uninstalled browsers, run Dr Web CureIt, installed browsers - did not help

Who said it is a virus ?
It sounds like YOU assumed it is a 'virus'.

Windows is infected, not your browsers.

What anti-virus application or security suite is installed and is your
subscription current? What anti-spyware applications (other than Defender)?
What third-party firewall (if any)?

Has a(another) Norton or McAfee application ever been installed on the
computer (e.g., a free-trial version that came preinstalled when you bought
it)?
