Google Search Results being hi-jacked

Hi all,

Can I firstly just say what a great website, I've already found some very helpful topics.
Reason for my post as the title explains when I click on search results in Google I takes me to various other search engine pages. I have followed the 8 step guide and hopefully these problems have been removed. I have attached the 3 logs as advised in the guide.

Any of your help is much appreciated.

Thanks

Lee

Lee, you have a pirated copy of Dreamweaver:
C:\Documents and Settings\Lee\My Documents\Downloads\Adobe DreamWeaver CS3 9.0 keygen.exe

You will need to remove that as we don't support piracy.

You are also using 2 antivirus programs:
AVG
Avira

Please uninstall one of them. Multiple antivirus programs can make the system more vulnerable and it can slow the system down.

Your Java is considerably out of date. You have v1.6.0_07> current is v6u18: This presents a vulnerbility to your system:
Check this site often.Java Updates Stay current as most updates are for security. Uninstall any earlier versions in Add/Remove Programs.[/list]

You have a DNS Changes malware infection which requires some special processes to remove. Your searches are now being routed through the Ukraine.

And there are other issues to be handled. I will be glad to assist with this, but for continued support, you will need to remove the pirated program.
 
Hi and thanks for your quick reply, I am now left baffled to say the least I cannot find any trace of DreamWeaver CS3, could it be possible the virus scanners have already removed this? I uninstalled the programme a while ago after purchasing CS4.

I have since removed AVG and updated Java.

Thanks again.
 
Sorry Lee- got behind, trying to catch up. Please do the following:
DNS Changer
You will need to do a DNS Flush, then reset your router.
Start> Run> type cmd> enter> at the C prompt type ipconfig /flushdns (note space before the /)

Exit the Command prompt when finished and shut the system down.-

  • [1]. Shut down your computer, and any other computer connected to your router.
    [2]. On the back of the router, there should be a small hole or button labelled RESET. Using a bent paper clip or similar item, hold that in continuously for twenty seconds.
    [3]. Unplug the router. Wait sixty seconds.
    [4].Now holding again the reset button, plug it back in. Continue holding the reset button for twenty seconds. Unplug the router again.
    [5].With the router unplugged, start your computer. Run MBAM again.
    [6].Connect to the router again. The turn the router back on.
    [7].When it stabilizes, reboot your workstation and try to access the internet. If you have any issues, access the Router configuration page and re-enter your authentication information.
    [8]. Reboot the system and test the internet. You may have to reconfigure the router settings based on your setup.

When finished, Please download ComboFix HERE:
  • With ComboFix, at the download window, please rename it to Combo-Fix(.exe) before downloading it.

    Important! Save the renamed download to your desktop.
