Tech Support Forum - View Single Post - Virus- Trojan? Redirects searches

amandabanana540 · 06-14-2009, 10:16 AM

I use Windows XP SP 3 and use Firefox as my web browser. I currently use AVG anit-virus and ZoneAlarm Firewall.
The computer was acting strangly- whenever I clicked a link in google, I would immediatley be redirected, no matter what the website was. The website I was redirected to varied, but was always an advertisment or store of some sorts, and the picture next to the web adress was always the same (a green icon with a swirly line through the middle).
I ran AVG antivirus and it found a trojan which it said it had deleted. The same thing continued happening even after I rebooted. I ran AVG again and it doens't detect anything. I have also ran Ad-Aware as well as a few other anti-virus/malware programs. Nothing is being detected.
I cleaned out my cache and temporary internet files using CCleaner. I am still being redirected and have also had my computer blue screen. I am currently using internet explorer instead of firefox and have not had the problem....yet...
