Hi,

Basically, whenever I click a link on any search engine, it will redirect to adverts/fake-malware removal sites, I have to open the link twice to get to the actual page. The interesting part is that this only happens when I am at home. When I am connected to the network at University, I do not have this problem, it only occurs at home, not only on my pc, but every pc in the house.

This has been going on a while now, and I would appreciate any help,

Thanks.

I have my HJT log below:

Welcome to Safer Networking, I wish to be sure you have viewed and understand this information.
"BEFORE you POST" (READ this Procedure before Requesting Assistance) http://forums.spybot.info/showthread.php?t=288
All advice given is taken at your own risk.
Please make sure you have read this information so we are on the same page.

You must have read and followed the "Before you Post" instructions.

it only occurs at home, not only on my pc, but every pc in the house
Sounds like you have a router infection at home, see this:
http://blog.washingtonpost.com/securityfix/2008/06/malware_silently_alters_wirele_1.html
I would start by resetting the router and changing your password, the manual will have instructions for doing this.

If you wish to proceed once you do that, we will do so like this.

1) uTorrent <<< all p2p programs must be uninstalled
http://forums.spybot.info/showthread.php?t=282

If your helper detects the presence of such programs on your computer he/she will ask you to remove them. Help will be withdrawn should you not agree to their removal.

2) http://www.systemlookup.com/CLSID/20564.html <<< see this information
http://www.benedelman.org/spyware/ask-toolbars/

3) C:\Program Files\Prevx\prevx.exe <<< did you install this? Do you own the program?

4) Please DO NOT ENABLE Spybot S&D TeaTimer while we work together.

5) Download Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware to your Desktop
http://www.malwarebytes.org/

http://www.besttechie.net/mbam/mbam-setup.exe <<< download

* Double-click mbam-setup.exe and follow the prompts to install the program.
* Be sure a checkmark is placed next to Update Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware and Launch Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware, then click Finish.
* If an update is found, it will download and install the latest version.
* Once the program has loaded, select Perform FULL SCAN, then click Scan.
* When the scan is complete, click OK, then Show Results to view the results.
* Be sure that everything is checked, and click Remove Selected.
* When completed, a log will open in Notepad. Please save it to a convenient location. The log can also be opened by going to Start > All Programs > Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware > Logs > log-date.txt
* Please post contents of that file & a new HJT log in your next reply.

Note: If MBAM encounters a file that is difficult to remove, you will be presented with 1 of 2 prompts. Click OK to either and let MBAM proceed with the disinfection process. If asked to restart the computer, please do so immediately. Failure to reboot will prevent MBAM from removing all the malware.

Tutorial if needed:

6) Post also an uninstall list: Open Hijackthis.
Click the "Open the Misc Tools" section Button.
Click the "Open Uninstall Manager" Button.
Click the "Save list..." Button.
Save it to your desktop. Copy and paste the contents into your reply.

This may be only a start, malware can be hidden and hard to remove and time consuming?

Thanks

Thank you for the help :)

1) uTorrent <<< all p2p programs must be uninstalled

Done

2) http://www.systemlookup.com/CLSID/20564.html <<< see this information

I have changed the password and rebooted the router

3) C:\Program Files\Prevx\prevx.exe <<< did you install this? Do you own the program?

Yes, it is a spyware removal tool that has served me well in the past, yet has come up with nothing regarding this problem.

4) Please DO NOT ENABLE Spybot S&D TeaTimer while we work together.

Done.

Uninstall list: I look for malware and security issues and will not know all of your programs, but you should.
Hackers are using out of date programs to infect folks more and more,
Here is a small free tool that lets you know when something needs an update if you are interested:
http://secunia.com/vulnerability_scanning/personal/ While PSI runs in the System Tray for realtime notifications, I personally prefer to turn it off in MSConfig and run it from All Programs when I want to do a check.

Adobe Flash Player 10 Plugin <<< not seeing a Flash Player installed for this plugin?
Adobe recommends all users of Adobe Flash Player 10.0.12.36 and earlier versions upgrade to the newest version 10.0.22.87
http://www.adobe.com/support/security/bulletins/apsb09-01.html

Adobe Reader 8.1.3 <<< out of date and unsafe, see this:

(if you want a smaller program, look at this one)
Foxit Reader 2.3 for Windows (make sure to uncheck any toolbars)

Ask Toolbar <<< uninstall

Java(TM) 6 Update 13 <<< update 14 has been released:

Have done all of this, except all regarding the ASK stuff, it is not in the HJT log, or in the services.msc?

Please do not post my instructions, waste of space. Uninstalling AskBarDis likely removed it all, I just double check. Post a fresh HJT log and tell me about any malware issues.

Update MBAM and scan to be sure we missed none of the junk, there is no need to post a clean scan result.
(MBAM is yours to keep if you wish, keep it updated and run it once a month or so)

Update F-Secure and scan the system, to be sure it is running right and scanning clean. If you have problems with the program, contact tech support for instructions.

If all is well at this point, let me know and I will close the topic.
