    Hello all,

    I have been trying to fix this problem for some time now. When I use Google and click on a link, I often get redirected. The status bar on the bottom says "connecting to waitsearch.ws". I have tried different AV software and still no luck...

    Here is the HJT log...

    Logfile of Trend Micro HijackThis v2.0.2
    Scan saved at 5:54:50 PM, on 12/15/2009
    Platform: Windows XP SP3 (WinNT 5.01.2600)
    MSIE: Internet Explorer v8.00 (8.00.6001.18702)
    Boot mode: Normal

    Edit by chaslang: Inline HJT log removed. READ & RUN ME FIRST. Malware Removal Guide sticky not followed.
