Title: Google redirect Post by: sonicyouth on Monday, November 14, 2011, 19:06:03 Anyone come across this issue before? Usually when you click on search results in Google it redirects you to ad pages etc...
If so how did you fix it? It is the bane of my existence at the moment and all I can use is SEP and Malwarebytes. Title: Re: Google redirect Post by: Peter Venkman on Monday, November 14, 2011, 19:09:20 Super Antispyware aint a bad one to use, also Spyware Doctor, both of which are freebies should do the job for you.
Title: Re: Google redirect Post by: Samdy Gray on Monday, November 14, 2011, 19:09:36 I take it you've already scanned with Malwarebytes?
Title: Re: Google redirect Post by: sonicyouth on Monday, November 14, 2011, 19:13:17 Malwarebytes didn't find anything.
Can't really use third party/random tools, was hoping there might be another fix for it somehow Title: Re: Google redirect Post by: Samdy Gray on Monday, November 14, 2011, 19:15:25 Have you checked the hosts file?
Title: Re: Google redirect Post by: Peter Venkman on Monday, November 14, 2011, 19:16:17 I always use Super Antispyware for browser hijacks as its better than malwarebytes, but malwarebytes finds a lof of the things that SAS doesnt find, and Spyware Doctor find others that they both dont find.
You need an arsenal of many anti malware programs these days as just one will never do it all. Also never ever pay for them, almost all pay for anti malware are not worth a penny, but the 3 mentioned above are all trusted and all free.
