Thanks in advance for the help.
I appear to be having the same problem other people are. I have a virus that causes google to redirect all search results elsewhere, as well as slow down my computer significantly. I am also unable to reach certain website (I don't see a pattern), and in Windows Explorer I can't see folder options either.
Can someone please help me?
Thank you!

If anyone is out there and willing to help here are my logs (malawarebytes and hijackthis):

By the way, malawarebytes would neither install nor run originally unless the exe files were renamed.What do I do?? Thanks!

hey buddy, have you tried running your scans in safe mode??? you should if you havent, especially malwarebytes and super anti spyware.
i would also run adaware, by lava soft, in safemode. Good Luck!!!!
