for the past 3 months ive been trying on and off to remove this redirect virus, i've downloaded just about every antivirus/malware protection but nothing seems to get rid of it, the only one that actually detected the infection was stopzilla but it didnt remove it.
i ran dds but it kept saying windows proccessor has stopped working
Hello ChefMaster,
I provided the link to this forum's FAQ in your original topic: http://forums.spybot.info/showthread.php?t=64208
From that sticky topic:
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, they look for topics with a 0 response. For that reason we may merge such posts but please do not count on it.
The same applies to "bumping". :p: http://forums.spybot.info/showpost.p...68&postcount=6 (http://forums.spybot.info/showpost.php?p=219168&postcount=6)
Also of pertinence: The Waiting Room: Post here if waiting for help four days (http://forums.spybot.info/forumdisplay.php?f=37)
From that sticky:
Volunteer resources are stretched at all malware removal forums, and we are seeing difficult infections which take longer to remove.
Please do remember the people assisting users in this forum are volunteers who give freely of their time. Not only do they have their own livelihood and families, many help people at several sites. In addition the expertize required in malware removal demands they spend time constantly updating their own knowledge, malware authors heat up the ante daily. :eek:
If you find yourself in the position of needing immediate assistance and cannot wait please take the machine to a local technician.Your topic was started yesterday, on a Sunday.

I doubt you will have to wait three months until a volunteer is available to assist.
Please start a new topic and do not add posts to it before someone responds.
If the infection prevents DDS from running, please start a topic anyway and make note of the situation. :)
Best regards,
