I don't beieve in free lunches, and am happy to contribute to the forum's success.Įdited by Soapstop, 11 March 2013 - 10:20 AM.Īround here they call me Gringo and I'll be glad to help you with your malware problems. Any assistance would be appreciated and remunerated. I've been struggling with this thing for so long, I'm not sure of my own name anymore. Using the regular Google search bar (by selecting it as one of the add on toolbars to be inserted into the header) did not seem to create the same problems. If I used that google search window, the results would be redirected, and then things would start to become wonky again (browser hijack) and even google search page redirects, as if it (the virus or whatever) was loading itself into "action" again.
To my surprise, my browser was working fine, my google search from the google web page was working fine, but something I had noticed before after 1 or two tries after running MBam, that there was a google search bar embedded into the ie8 header, one that i had used for years, but was a short little version with a different google icon. I knew I was in over my head already.Īfter I did this, I checked on my IE8. Upon going through all of it, (yup did Defogger, MBam, Combofix, Blitzbank), but stopped before I hit the "Run CFscript". After going through most (but not all) of the instructions, and of course not having the results scrutinized, I thought it wasn't likely to work, but tried it anyway. Anyway, when I googled this issued, i did try a number of things from a post in this forum started by "GLT" on March 14th, 2012. I can say that the Google Chrome Browser is not infected and can be used without a problem. Each time I reloaded IE8, and used a particular search bar, it would reload the redirects. I tried using Malwarebytes and it found a bunch of problems, and using Super Antispyware, and it found a few more that looked like it was files that may be related to a hijack based on search results, but this did not fix it. Well, I know this has been done to death, and i tried to follow an identical post that occurred almost a year ago, but I wasn't able to replicate the success that the poster had to removing the unwanted redirect.Ībout a week ago, my google search results were, when clicked on, being redirected to all sorts of wacky places.
