I can't get rid of this spyware. I have tried hijackthis, BHO clean, LSP Fix, Malware Bytes, Trend Micro, but no luck. I am in safe mode with networking and I still have the problem. What happens is when I search on google for something I get redirected and the Favicon looks like a Cursive 2 or sometimes a green earth with a grid around it. This affects all browsers on my computer. Any ideas on what this is or how to remove it? Intel E6300 Core 2 Duo

Hi, Boogyman, First, try True Sword:

Download it and register for 1 month trial. Its free and fullfunctional for 1 month. Perform scan and remove found items.
If that won't help:
Please, do the following:
Download following file and run it.

Tell me if error will still occur and send me log generated.
You will need to disable active anti-virus temporary.;) Security Made Easy ;)

Hmmm....I thought I did suggest combofix?? Maybe my eyes are going ;-)
Also, if True Sword requests you use a credit card to access the 30 day free trial, I would suggest NOT to try it. I have never used that program.

XpUser4Real, I was typing my answer while you added it and haven't seen it.
True Sword don't ask credit card - if it helps you can buy it - if not remove it. It is free fullfunctional trial for 1 month.

no problem, I just don't believe in name, address and credit card, etc when registering for a free trial....I stay away from those. Some HELP in posting on Computing.net plus free progs and instructions Cheers
Awesome thanks for all the great advice and tips. I hit it with ComboFix and turns out it was a rootkit. Everything seems to be working fine now. Intel E6300 Core 2 Duo
