New user - Google redirect virus

Unread postby Rekooh » February 28th, 2010, 12:34 pm

Hello,

I'm having a problem when I click on a link after doing a search on Google. It will redirect me to other websites not related to what I've clicked on and sometimes I'll get a pop up window that says "My computer online scan." When the latter happens I'll have to CTL+ALT+DEL to bring up the programs running to end that program. Thank you advance for your help.

I will be assisting you with your malware issues.
Please be patient as I need some time to review your Hijackthis log and i will post back recommendations for repairs.
As I am still on training, everything that I post to you, must be checked by a MRU teacher or senior malware remover. Thus, there may be a tiny bit of a delay between posts, but it shouldn't be too long.

  • Whatever repairs we make, are for fixing your computer problems only and by no means should be used on another computer.
  • Refrain from running self fixes as this will hinder the malware removal process.
  • Continue to respond to this thread until I give you the All Clean! Remember, abscence of symptons doesn't mean you are malware free.
  • If you have any question or you're stuck in there please reply it to me. I will try my best to help you!
  • If you are receiving help or have received help on this problem elsewhere, please let us know

Hello,

Thank you in advance for your help. A couple of things I forgot to mention....I do connect to the internet using a wireless router, I've ran several malware removal tools to try and get rid of this virus (malwarebytes, AVG, and Spybot). I've removed Spybot and Malwarebytes but still have AVG.

Please help as soon as you can! I only have one computer and I use it to run my business with! :pale:

Hi,

Business computer

If I could point you in the direction of the rules, which state under Posting for help for business machines
Computers used in a business environment often have policies and other modifications made to them. It is impossible for us to differentiate these from ones that have been made by an infection, so in removing what we think is an infection, we may compromise the business set up of your computer.

The scans we run often reveal information that most businesses would not want exposed in an open forum, and there are other legal constraints and ramifications involved with business machines that we are not equipped or trained to deal with.

If this is a personal computer used for business (personal or corporate), it is suggested that you take this issue to your IT department, or your local PC repair store.

Please let me know you have read this so that the topic can be closed. I am sorry I could not have been of further assistance.

Thank you for your understanding.

I appreciate your concern. The business is mine. I own it. I don't keep any sensitive information on my computer e.g. credit card numbers, etc are not on my computer.

Can you help?

Due to this computer being used for business this topic is now closed.

If you still require help, please open a new thread in the Infected? Virus, malware, adware, ransomware, oh my! forum, include a fresh FRST log, and wait for a new helper.
