    Hi,
    i just started having this problem. when i goto yahoo or google search bar and type in a query to search, the results come back with the correct blue header at the top but it redirects to a wrong url. for instance, if i goto yahoo search and type in 'youtube' this is the url it gives me 'http://bx.businessweek.com' but the blue header at the top is correct and description is correct. I have noticed that if i type in youtube.com and add the .com part then the url is correct in the search results. This is driving me crazy, can someone look at my log and see if you can find something. any help is appreciated, thanks..

    Welcome to Major Geeks!

    Please follow the instructions in the below link and attach the requested logs when you finish these instructions.


    • If something does not run, write down the info to explain to us later but keep on going.
    • Do not assume that because one step does not work that they all will not.
    READ & RUN ME FIRST. Malware Removal Guide

    Notes:

    1. If you run into problems trying to run the READ & RUN ME or any of the scans in normal boot mode. You can running steps in safe boot mode but make sure you tell us what you did later when you post logs. See the below if you do not know how to boot in safe mode:
    2. If you have problems downloading on the problem PC, download the tools on another PC and burn to a CD. Then copy them to the problem PC. You will have to skip getting updates if (and only if) your internet connection does not work. Yes you could use a flash drive too but flash drives are writeable and infections can spread to them.
