1.My trouble started few days ago when I got something called "internet security 2010". I managed to remove it and thought I was sorted but the problem that I have now is that google and other search engine search results automatically get redirected to other sites and many of those try to download other malware. There are unwanted pop ups to similar sites. I can not open any search result, only option being to copy and paste the link.

2. Currently McAfee, Malwarebytes and Spybot scans are all clean.

3. I have used ATF cleaner, and using your instructions re posting, have run hijackthis. Following is the log.

Hvnt heared anything yet. :oops:

My problem appears to have been solved. At least it seems that way for the time being. I downloaded Hitman pro 3.5 which identified and removed a rootkit. Things seem to be running smoothly afterwards.

I'll get back to you if there are any problems.

Posting additional comments or logs before a volunteer responds, can push you back instead of forward, because your thread ends up with a newer date. In addition helpers would think you are already being assisted because of the post count.
