Potential Redirect Virus Infection

[John-22]

Hello,

I am new to this forum. My home PC has apparently been infected with some type of virus that redirects searches to random websites. I've seen a number of posts talking about a Google Redirect virus, as well as others. Can someone please help me get rid of it. Our PC is basically useless because of this. I am not a PC administrator of any kind, so please keep it simple for me. Thanks,

John
