Hi I have a case of the google redirect virus. I have downloaded Malware bytes, super anti spyware and ran scans which it then says it has cleaned but they seem to not have solved the problem.

I have uninstalled Java rebooted installed latest version and that seemed to solve the problem for about an hour. I am just about to do a Kaspersky scan. Is it recommended I post a HiJackThis log?

Thanks

got a few question marks but generally its ranges from safe to very safe... just ran malware bytes and SuperAntispyware and they are now coming up with nothing, updated them as well. But the problem persists.

Thanks
