Random popups and page hijacking in search engines like google and yahoo

[oxmn9]

I keep getting pop ups at random times and every time I search something in Google and I click a link it redirects me to a another site. How can I fix this? I ran a scan from HiJackThis and this is what I got. I'm using Mozilla Firefox

Hello and Welcome to TSF.

We no longer use HijackThis as our initial analysis tool.

We want all our members to perform the steps outlined in the link I'll give you below, before posting for assistance. There's a sticky at the top of this forum, and a

Having problems with spyware and pop-ups? First Steps

link at the top of each page.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


As stated in our pre-posting sticky topic...

NEW INSTRUCTIONS - Read This Before Posting For Malware Removal Help

If you have more than one antivirus software installed, leave only ONE and uninstall the others

While this may seem like greater protection, it can cause problems including slowdowns, system hangs or even crashes. This can happen if both AntiVirus applications attempt to access the same file at the same time. This may cause the applications to interfere with each other, or cause the system to lock up. It can also be a drain on system resources, making a machine run slower than it should.

I see you have more than one Anti-Virus program installed, Avira and Kaspersky. Choose one to keep and uninstall the other.

Any antivirus program must be removed via add/remove program.
For any program that doesn't have an add/remove entry, you will have to do this:

re-install the program -> reboot -> uninstall

Please follow our pre-posting process outlined here:
