IE google results issue
« on: 13 October 2011, 15:14 »
Everytime I do a IE google search and then click on one of the results it takes me to a a random website  :sad:

This only happens within IE (but i must use IE for work purposes). Tried the microsoft malware and trojan scanner yesterday and after doing a full scam it found 6 infected files on my pc, which were then removed.

It has been working fine this morning and this only seems to happen occasionally, but when it does it wont stop.

Any suggestions as no matter what I have tried seems to fix it but only temporarily. Any suggestions??

thanks
 :smiley:

My brother had this, cant remember for the life of me what it was called.

combofix got it in the end.

i had help from bleeping computer, i found to get to sites like bleepingcomputer when you first click the link quickly copy the correct address, open a new tab and paste the link, wont get redirected then.

this is my thread last month:

http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/topic417617.html/page__p__2397848#entry2397848

but if you look at the forum and that section every other problem is google redirect!
