I am running Spybot SD, with Zone Alarm Ver.6.5.700.000

Zone Alarm and Spybot both say my system is clean but I know that is incorrect.

I cannot go to a web page without being redirected to mrfindalot.com. How do I get rid of this without destroyinh my computer?

I have also tried to run Spybot SD in safemode with no luck either.

Thanks in Advance,
Tim
