I have tried everything. I can not find where this is hiding at. Everytime click on a link you are redirected through ussrchsystem.com or us-srch-system.com to some add site. Just about ready to reformat PC and start over.

Hello Desert Eagle,

If this is a personal computer and you would like someone to take a look at the system you can start a topic in the Malware Removal Forum (http://forums.spybot.info/forumdisplay.php?f=22) and a volunteer analyst will advise when available.

First see that forum's FAQ which also includes instructions in post #2 on how to provide a preliminary DDS log, which is used for analysis.
"BEFORE you POST"(READ this Procedure BEFORE Requesting Assistance) (http://forums.spybot.info/showthread.php?t=288)

If the DDS won't run please start a new topic there anyway and make a note of the issue.

Best regards. :)

I have the same issue, I've tried the Microsoft Safety Scanner which found a virus (unfortunately I didn't make a note of the name) that seemed to have the right description to match the affects of the virus, however, the virus is still present after it was quarantined and a full reboot.

Any help appreciated.

Virus is redirecting me to ussrchsystem.com and us-srch-system.com which again redirects to GOOGLE homepage while having the original web address at the address bar and sometimes to some other legitimate website.

This problem isnt web browser specific chrome , firefox and ie all are behaving in the same manner

I have done the following, although I am still suffering. Probably this virus is regenerating itself-

1. I downloaded Kaspersky Tdss killer it detected the rootkit and cleaned it after reboot
2. I have quickheal antivirus 2011 installed it detects it every other time and asks for a reboot to delete it. After deletion within a few minutes problem regenerates.

3. I installed anti malware from malwarebytes , it did scanned but everytime it hangs up the system.



Please help me , I dont want to format the entire system. The problem is NOT google specific even BING is behaving in the same way.

:thanks: in advance

Everyone,

Sorry to repeat but third time lucky. :p:

Posting to the malware removal forum may also result in a sample of the infection being obtained which could be beneficial for detection. :oreo:

Best regards.

All,

I suffered the exact same symptoms. While it took me several days of troubleshooting off and on, here is what I did to resolve the problem until someone can come up with a solution via scanning utility:

1) Added the following to my hosts file, as I saw traffic going to these sites from my computer:

ussrchsystem.com
us-srch-system.com
us-search-system.com
www.ussrchsystem.com
www.us-srch-system.com
www.us-search-system.com
ranjzork.cn
govphe2.co.cc
counter.yadro.ru

2) I then watched the processes on my computer when the system tried to go to these sites. I tried several browsers. IE, Firefox and Opera all suffered from the complication. Comodo Dragon did not suffer from the redirect issue. So, I looked deeper at the process and I honestly can't recall how I got here because I did so much poking and peeking, but, I ended up deleting this directory from my computer and the problem went away:

c:\windows\assembly\tmp\U

JUST THE 'U' directory, nothing else, it may be different on different machines as well. I noticed inside here some scripts that were extremely suspicious. One of them clearly the culprit. It had some if statements that basically said, if the url in the browser is on is one of these search engines, then inject and intercept with this designation url.

Major pain, but taken care of now.

Hope this helps.

Tashi, thanks for editing out the HTML links in my previous post. That was a bit dim of me to copy and paste them in like that. Sorry. Was thinking about the problem and not the post. Again, thanks.

No problem, cheers. :)
