    Hi, I hope someone can help. Recently when using google search engine when I click on the result which looks like it has the correct link something complete different comes up and some are not very good site for children.

    I have run spy bot and other Ad packages but no joy. I have now run Hijackthis with the following log attached. Any help would be appreciated.

    cheers.

    Welcome to Majorgeeks!

    First run this procedure: WareOut Removal

    Now since you may have other issues to fix, please follow our standard cleaning procedures which are necessary for us to provide you support. Also there are steps included for installing, renaming, running, and posting HijackThis logs as attachments.
    • Run ALL the steps in this Sticky thread READ & RUN ME FIRST Before Asking for Support
    • Make sure you check version numbers and get all updates.
    • Very Important: Make sure you tell us the results from running the tutorial...was anything found? Were you unable to complete any of the scans?...Were you unable to download any of the tools?...Did you do the on-line scans as suggested? etc.
    • After doing ALL of the above you still have a problem make sure you have booted to normal mode and run the steps in the below link to properly use HijackThis and attach a log:
    Make sure you also rename HijackThis.exe as suggested in the procedures. Use analyse.exe for the new name. This is very important due to some new infections going around.
    • When you return to make your next post, make sure you attach the following logs and that you have run these scans in the following order too:
      • c:\fixwareout\report.txt (from running FixWareOut)
      • CounterSpy - only for Windows XP, 2K, & NT users
      • AVG Antispyware log - ONLY IF NEEDED you were not able to run CounterSpy. - only for Windows XP, 2K, & NT users
      • Bitdefender - from step 6
      • Panda Scan - from step 6
      • runkeys.txt - the log from GetRunKey.bat
      • newfiles.txt - the log from ShowNew.bat
      • HijackThis
    NOTE: You can only attach 3 files in a single message so it will require that you use three messages to attach all of these logs!

    Okay but you have more to do and you did not indicate how things are working after just running FixWareOut. I can see it fixed a bunch of your problems but you may have more to do.

    Have done up to stage 5 now and it looks like its fixed it. Could not find the CClenaer the link went to RegCure got that for $48 and seems to have done the trick.
    I'll keep you informed if things change.
    Thanks for your help.

    I'm not sure what you mean! The CCleaner link works just fine. You must have inadvertantly clicked on another link on the page rather than the download links for Ccleaner. You did not need to purchase anything.

    You really should attach the other logs that were requested. I thought I saw other stuff in your log (like MyWeb for one).
