Hi, I have IE7 and use both google and MSN livesearch to perform searches. Both will redirect me to other websites when I click on the results; not necessarily XX rated sites, but relevant spam based on the search.

I have tried: malwarebytes, AVG, spyware blaster, spybot, PC tools anti-virus, SUPER antispyware, ad-aware and dedaulus system cleaner.

I can give you my HIJACK THIS log if you need it

HELP ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

and thanks :)

You should first check for the installed plugins in IE.
There are some trojans, that do install IE plugins to start directly on windows startup and redirects to other sites on the internet.
Disable all plugins, not really needed and try again.

Please send a reply, if you solved the problem !!!
