Google redirects 2

A few months ago, I installed IE7. I selected Google as the search engine. A couple of weeks ago, I began getting redirects from my search results. A new page will pop up looking like a new search engine. It sometimes lists similar things to my orginal search item but clicking on those redirects to another page. It's really frustrating. I've run Spysweeper and found a trojan (swizz-fam)that I finally removed. That did not help. I've also run Adaware, Spybot S&D, and I have the beta version of Counterspy running and nothing seems to be able to pick it up. When I run Mozilla for a web search, it works fine with no redirects. Help!!!!
 
Post a 'HiJackThis' Log and/or look at several other posts on this topic over the past few weeks.

Steve [The sane]: Delphi a feersum engin indeed.
 
I have also run CW Shredder and everything looks clean. Here is the Hijack this scan results. Hopefully someone will recognize the evil redirecter! I've also removed Norton antivirus along with everything in Norton System Works.

Hi Brian,

According to this entry should be fixed:

R1 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Search Bar = file://C:\DOCUME~1\Brian\LOCALS~1\Temp\sp.html

that's a old version of hijack this, download a current version from below and repost your log as there may be more baddies!


Download hijack this from the link below.Please do this. Click here:


to download HijackThis. Click scan and save a logfile, then post it here so
we can take a look at it for you. Don't click fix on anything in hijack this
as most of the files are legitimate.

safe mode:




Run AVG Anti-Spyware!

# IMPORTANT: Do not open any other windows or programs while AVG is scanning as it may interfere with the scanning process:
# Launch AVG Anti-spyware by double-clicking the icon on your desktop.
# Select the "Scanner" icon at the top and then the "Scan" tab then click on "Complete System Scan".
# AVG will now begin the scanning process. Be patient this may take a little time.
Once the scan is complete do the following:
# If you have any infections you will prompted, then select "Apply all actions"
# Next select the "Reports" icon at the top.
# Select the "Save report as" button in the lower left hand of the screen and save it to a text file on your system (make sure to remember where you saved that file, this is important).
# Close AVG and reboot your system back into Normal Mode.



reboot to normal mode and run a few online scans!



Note: this is a stand alone, it doesn't install to start/programmes.

Download Mwav,



double click on it and it will extract to C:\kaspersky. Click
on the kaspersky folder and click on Kavupd, a black dos window will open
and it will update the programme for you, be patient it will take 5-10
minutes to download the new definitions. Once it's updated, click on mwavscan
to launch the programme.

Use the defaults of:

Memory
startup folders
Registry
system folders
services

Choose drive , all drives and, click scan all files
and then click scan/clean. After it finishes scanning and cleaning post
the log here with a new hijack this log.

Note: this is a very thorough scanner, it might take anything up to an hour
or more, depending on how many drives you have and how badly infected your
pc is.



Highlight the portion of the scan that lists infected items and hold
CTRL + C to Copy then paste it here. The whole log with be extremely
big so there is no way to copy the whole thing. I just need the
infected items list.




post another hijack this log, the AVG Anti-Spyware log, wareout and the Mwav scan log.

Ignore the part about hclean reg fix, that shouldn't have been in there!

I did the fixware and this is the logfile after that. hClean32.exe was not attached for some reason but I will look around for it. Thanks. Brian

Here is the most recent Hijack scan. I did not download Hclean32. There seem to be many references to that program being a Trojan that is very hard to remove. I'm not sure why I would need that.

Well...I just went and tried Google and it's back to the same old Google that it was...NO MORE REDIRECTS!! I did the Fixware step and also deleted the 016 HKLM entries from Hijack this. It looks like problem solved. Thank you for the help. I don't have any way to know if something else will show up but it's back to turning on Spysweeper.
