Java update plugin redirection problem

Hello! Sometimes my webpage will redirect to a "outdated java plugin detected" page. It happens on any of my browsers (internet explorer, firefox, google chrome). I doubt this is how java gets people to update.

I have tried uninstalling firefox and reinstalling, I have tried clearing the caches from all my browsers, including the DNS.

Before majorgeeks I googled the problem and malwarebytes was suggested, so the reason the logs are empty is likely because I have used it a few times already, but I did not know how to take the logs at the time; same with hitman pro

I have tried JRT, adwcleaner, avg, norton, I have tried a full system scan using microsoft security essentials,

I have run RogueKiller, Malwarebytes Anti-Malware (after finding MG), TDSSKiller, HitmanPro (after MG), and MGlogs.zip during safe mode.

This java malware of some sort has not infected the other computers in the household so I do not think it is a DNS poisoning/hijacking

After using MGlogs, I believe that one was the one that required me to turn off UAC. After using the scanner I tried to turn the UAC back on but some of my folders/files became unaccessible, I'm not sure why. So I did a system restore.

I have disabled any disk emulating software using the defogger (still disabled)

I will make a second post for the remainder of the logs.

I'm sorry if I miss something(s)

 

Oh! I also ran CCleaner, but on normal mode

I think that is everything. When I googled the problem I saw that there were some videos of deleting? some registry... things. However the files in my registry did not match anything in the video so of course I didn't want to randomly delete something and didn't do anything.

 

whoops! sorry about that!

 

Hello again!

I ran the messenger disable and it tells me it cannot locate it.

I ran the MG getlogs.bat and similar to last time there were some folders that appeared that are unaccessible, which i wasn't sure what they were and didn't want to delete, which is why I ran the system restore.

Still have the java update thing.

 

Also... I'm not sure what you mean by using MSConfig? I figured normal mode was not safe mode or safe mode with network, which I think is just starting up the computer and not pressing F8?

 

Okie dokie. I await your next instructions!

Also, I asked a friend of mine to see if he could fix it and I will let you know whether he fixes it or not. I would still really appreciate your help though

 

Uh... somehow using MSConfig and clicking on normal startup seemed to clear it up. I have been browsing the internet with no problems so far...

I'm really not sure how that works. Am I being too optimistic to say that it is fixed? Should I run the getlogs.bat again?
I'm embarassed to say, but I ran the getlogs.bat before using MSConfig :-o so the logs i posted might not be accurate?

Can you explain what might be happening/what happened? Either here or in a pm or something?

 

thank you

 

Hello!

Sorry to have appeared again...

So, unfortunately the java redirection thing has come back, or sort of never left?

Anyhow, it seemed fine the last time I posted, which was when I tried clicking on normal startup with MSConfig. And it seemed like it was okay for a little bit. But after the windows update it seems to have come back. I tried a system restore to the time and day that I tried MSconfig; normal startup and again it seemed to, I don't know, hide?

Anyway after the last update, I tried system restore once again, and to no avail. The java update is here to stay.

I brought my laptop to a friend who tried using spyware terminator and I will post logs from a few scans.

I have not tried any previous scans because I don't believe they will yield any results different from last time.

Is it possible that this whole thing might be easier if I uninstall Windows 7 (what I have) and install a different type of windows? Would that work on a laptop?
