Website routing problem, please help!

m4bes · 03-03-2007, 01:17 PM

Hi I was wondering if anyone new how to sort this really frustrating problem. When I use any of the search engines for example google and clik on a link I am being re-routed to random websites that have nothing to do with what was originally searched. I assume this is some sort of spyware which is re-directing me. I have installed adaware and other anti-spyware programmes which have not helped. Does anyone know how to fix this problem?

Hello m4bes

Welcome to TSF.

Download ComboScan to your Desktop.
Close all applications and windows.
Double-click on comboscan.exe to run it, and follow the prompts.
When the scan is complete, a text file will open - ComboScan.txt
Copy and paste the contents of ComboScan.txt in your thread in the HijackThis Log Help forum.
A folder, C:\ComboScan, will also open. In it will be another text file, Supplementary.txt.
Please attach Supplementary.txt to your post.
