I know very little about computers so I hope I can give you enough info. My computer was fine until my husband took it on a trip and used the hotels free wireless internet. Here's the problem, I search for something on Google. I click on the website I want, but am sometimes taken to a completely different website. Or the web address will be http://www.missngpage.com/search...... of course nothing comes up. I close the tab before a page loads. I notice I have the problems usually when I right click on the website and then select "open in new tab". Thanks for your help.

Hi,
Can you please post your AVZ log:

1) To create the logfile, please firstly download AVZ by clicking HERE(http://www.z-oleg.com/avz4.zip). Please save this file to your desktop or "My Documents" folder.
2) 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.

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
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.

[code]
begin
ExecuteStdScr(3);
RebootWindows(true);
end.
[/code]

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 past the link here.
