Homepage goes to Google and other weird web pages

[spiedon]

My IE homepage is redirected to Google and any link I click on or paste into the address bar takes me to some bogus ad site. I've run sopybot, adaware, cwshredder, spysubtract, and windows defender. The only program that noticed an issue was Spybot, but the occurance frequently comes up (NoLogOff) is not the problem. Here's my HijacThis log:

Welcome to the forum, read about this nasty:
http://www.sophos.com/security/analyses/trojcimuzaz.html and what Symantec call it:
http://www.symantec.com/security_response/writeup.jsp?docid=2006-080315-1729-99&tabid=2

I need your help with this one, if you don't know it, scan the file with one of these free online scanners and remove it with HJT. Post the scan results for me to see.
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: NoDualHome] "C:\ProgramFiles\NoDualHome\NoDualHome.vbs"

Your Java program is outdated and one of the fastest way folks are getting infectedby hackers, see this information.
http://forums.spybot.info/showpost.php?p=12880&postcount=2
C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.5.0_04\ <<< outdated, uninstall all old version and get the newest.

1) How to make files and folders visible:
Click Start > Open My Computer.
Select the Tools menu and click Folder Options.
Select the View Tab. Under the Hidden files and folders heading, select Show hidden files and folders.
Uncheck: Hide file extensions for known file types
Uncheck the Hide protected operating system files (recommended) option.
Click Yes to confirm.
Click OK.

2) Please download ATF Cleaner by Atribune
http://www.atribune.org/content/view/25/2/
Save it to your Desktop. We will use this later.

3) We need to disable your Windows Defender Real-time Protection as it may interfere with the fixes that we need to make.
Open Windows Defender, Click on Tools, General Settings.
Scroll down and uncheck Turn on real-time protection (recommended).
After you uncheck this, click on the Save button and close Windows Defender.
After all of the fixes are complete it is very important that you enable Real-time Protection again.

4) Open HijackThis and choose "Do a system scan only" then check the box in front of these line items:
