Web search redirecting, Music files don't play anymore

Unread postby tcharris28 » November 30th, 2010, 3:12 pm

I was surfing the web looking and downloading codec for .mov files and infected my PC with several adwares, malwares, spywares, and Trojans. I did several scans with Vit Registry Fix 9.5, Avira Antivir Control, and Malwarebytes' Anti-Malwares softwares. I removed over 30 detections and hundreds of errors, but still can't surf the web without something going wrong. If I use Google search engine I will be redirected to random sites, if I use Yahoo I can get to the site but if I try to submit an application or a request I will be redirected to some shopping site. And it seems like my computers has less free space and I can't find whats taking it up, I've cleaned up as much as I could without causing more damage. Here's the Logs and Uninstall list you requested
