Specs: Windows XP

Like a lot of people on here, I was struck with the Google Redirect Virus. I have tried everything posted on these boards and others but it will not go away. I have run Malwarebytes, Combo Fix, SDFIX, Spy Hunter, and Avira all to no avail. I use Malwarebytes for my real-time protection, and everytime i scan with it,2 or 3 things get picked up, i reboot and remove but others replace them. The virus is effecting all of my browsers, but seems to only be on google and not any other search engine. I am out of ideas and help would be greatly appreciated.

Just a word to wise don't use tools like sdfix and combofix with out help of person who knows about these tools. It will only create more problems and might screw up your system more.. Upload your combofix/sdfix log to rapidshare and post like to it here.

I apologize, I was very frustrated with the virus so i just threw everything i had at it hastily. I will definitely be more cautious next time.

Note: I can help you remove malware manually. Please avoid installing/uninstalling or updating any programs and attempting any unsupervised fixes or scans. This can make helping you impossible. First Track this topic. Then follow:
1) Can you please post your AVZ log:
Note: Run AVZ in windows normal mode and make sure you are connect to internet. If avz.exe doesn't start, then try to rename the file avz.exe to something else and try to run it again. Make sure you have your web browser open in background before following the steps below.
i) To create the log file, download AVZ by clicking HERE. Please save this file to your desktop or "My Documents" folder.
ii) Next, unpack the file to a new folder using the Compressed (zipped) folders wizard built into Windows XP/Vista, or a zip utility of your choice.
iii) Once you have unpacked the contents of the zip archive, please launch the file AVZ.exe by double clicking on it or right clicking and selecting Open.
Note: If you are running Windows vista launch AVZ.exe by right clicking and selecting Run as Administrator.
You should now see the main window of the AVZ utility. Please navigate to File->Custom Scripts. Copy the script below by using the keyboard shortcut CTRL+C or the corresponding option via right click.
begin
ExecuteAVUpdateEx( 'http://avz.virusinfo.info/avz_up/', 1, '','','');
ExecuteStdScr(3);
RebootWindows(true);
end.
Paste the script into the execution window by using CTRL+V keyboard shortcut, or the "paste" option via the right click menu. Click on Run to run the script, the PC will reboot. After the reboot the LOG subfolder is created in the folder with AVZ, with a file called virusinfo_syscure.zip inside. Upload that file to rapidshare.com and paste the link here.

2) Download and Run DDS which will create a Pseudo HJT Report as part of its log: DDS Tool Download Link. When done, DDS will open two (2) logs
   1. DDS.txt
   2. Attach.txt
Upload the logs to rapidshare.com and paste download link in your next reply.
Note: Disable any script-blocking programs and then double-click on the DDS.scr icon to start the program. If you did not disable a script-blocker that may be part of your antimalware program, you may receive a warning from your antimalware product asking if you would like DDS.scr to run. Please allow it to do so.

4) Double-click on the randomly named GMER file (i.e. n7gmo46c.exe) and allow the gmer.sys driver to load if asked.
5) GMER will open to the Rootkit/Malware tab and perform an automatic quick scan when first run. (do not use the computer while the scan is in progress)
6) If you receive a WARNING!!! about rootkit activity and are asked to fully scan your system...click NO.
7) Now click the Scan button. If you see a rootkit warning window, click OK.

Follow these Steps in order numbered. Don't proceed to next step unless you have successfully completed previous step:
1) Attach a Combofix log, please review and follow these instructions carefully.
Download it here -> http://download.bleepingcomputer.co...
Before Saving it to Desktop, please rename it to something like 123.exe to stop malware from disabling it.
Now, please make sure no other programs are running, close all other windows and pause Antivirus/Sypware programs (http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/topic114351.html Programs to disable) until after the scanning and removal process has taken place.
Please double click on the file you downloaded. Follow the onscreen prompts to start the scan. Once the scanning process has started please DO NOT click on the Combofix window or attempt to use your computer as this can cause the scanning process to stall. It may take a while to complete scanning and this is normal.
You will be disconnected from the internet and your desktop icons/toolbars will disappear during scanning, do not worry, this is normal and it will be restored after scanning has completed.
Combofix will create a logfile and display it after your computer has rebooted. Usually located in c:\combofix.txt, please upload that file to rapidshare.com and paste the link here.
2) Please zip up C:\qoobox\quarantine and upload it, to a filehost such as http://rapidshare.com/ Then, Private Message me the Download links to the uploaded files.

Not good different scan tell different story... Its because you ran some scans without knowing about them.. Run complete scan with: http://onecare.live.com/site/en-Us/... post screenshot of detected and fix what it detects.
