Fans of using social networks sometimes face the problem of the inability to access the usual means of communicating with friends and acquaintances.

All further actions will depend on this.

There may be several reasons for what happened. Therefore, initially try to restore access in a standard way - using a mobile phone number. Well, if it didn’t work, tune in to more serious actions. So your profile has been hacked and it’s blocked. And now the site administration suspects that your page, for example, is sending spam. If the standard recovery did not work, try contacting tech support.

It also happens that from a mobile phone or other computer, you go to your page without problems and do not find anything terrible there. With this scenario, everything becomes more or less clear. Some wretches cracked the profile. What to do? Attackers were able to successfully send a virus to your computer, which thus changed the PC system files, so that when you try to access the Odnoklassniki website, you will be taken to a hackers page designed in a similar way. And you see an error message or a requirement to send a paid SMS to resume access. If you send a message, the money will be withdrawn, but you still won’t get access.

If your profile was hacked and blocked, then this was most likely achieved by adding a few lines to the hosts system file . It turns out that you need to fix it. There are two ways to accomplish this task: using the AVZ system utility or manually. In the first case, download the free utility, unpack and run it. In the file menu, we start system recovery. After completing the operation, restart the computer and use your favorite site. It happens that does not work. Then we use the second method. To do this, in the Notepad program, launched as administrator, open the file C: \ Windows \ System32 \ drivers \ etc \ hosts. That's what we need. We delete any entries in which social networks appear, including Odnoklassniki. Save the hosts file. You may need to enable the display of system folders and files.

We restart the computer again and try to enter the site. If it still doesn’t work out, then you’ll have to look for excess in startup. After all, the problem, which is that your profile has been hacked and blocked, needs to be solved. We climb into the registry editor by pressing the Win + R buttons and using the Regedit command. We check programs that start automatically, along with the start of Windows. We save (you never know) the current version of the registry and clean it, deleting any suspicious entries. We again return to the hosts file and repeat the operations that were done earlier there. Reboot the PC. Another attempt to get to the site.

Most likely, the problem will be solved. In the event that you still don’t get to Odnoklassniki, the profile is hacked and blocked, we proceed to drastic actions. Temporarily remove your antivirus, install a full-fledged trial version of Kaspersky Anti- Virus and check the entire system with it. So the question will be closed unambiguously - access to your profile will open.
