Hi

I have a problem with spyware which redirects my google internet searches on firefox. It doesn't seem to do this on IE but as I don't use that much I'm not 100%. I've seen advice offered on here but it sounds like it's computer specific.

Please can anyone help? My Hijackthis log is below

Many thanks
Gareth

You can start out with
1- Ccleaner Slim....run it and remove all it finds
2- Malwarebytes update it and remove all it finds.
If it is a rootkit you can try Avast Free and allow it to do a bootscan on reboot.
If Avast doesn't remove it there are other methods

Some HELP in posting on Computing.net plus free progs and instructions Cheers
