Solved: How to remove Google Redirect Virus

[Victor]

Hi all:

My job depent on searching the internet. Now each time I googled I get redirect to other sites ramdomly.

I run Mcaffe but nothing is detected.

I also tried other suggestion found in internet (regedit, etc) without exit.

Please help me to remove it.

My last resort is restore the machine to its original state unless you suggest a way to remove this virus.

Your help is really important to me.

Thanks

Victor

A simple web search for '"internet explorer" redirect' returns many sites offering solutions for this. For example, see: http://uk.answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20070702130055AAMjMGv

The problem is not with Google. It is with the criminals that create and distribute malware. The responsibility is on the computer owners to be aware that it takes more than one antivirus product to keep your system "safe." If you are not able to resolve the problem with multiple products, you might consider visiting a malware removal forum where they can provide assistance with more advanced tools.

I killed it with Hitmanpro, free for 30 days.

Hi:

After this experience I bought Norton Antivirus and dropped Mcafee. Also bought Hitman Pro and Norton Utilities.

Until now all viruses are detected and deleted before going into the computer.
