    Hi all, I'm new to posting on this site, and only started browsing couple days ago so apologies if not posting on the right board.

    As the title of the thread suggests I have redirect malware affecting MS Internet Explorer on this machine - (it's actually my fathers - I've had the sense to install firefox for when ever I use it which is how I'm able to get on the web now - I have administrator access)

    I have just recently removed a Zlob down loader that AVG found in the program files - I also manually deleted folders for virus ranger.

    Now when ever MS IE is used it will go to the home page (msn) and I can even perform a search an example I just searched on Casio, selected a link that should of gone to casio.co.uk it will go through various URL's, one of which is webcry the others are IP addresses and I wll end up at another search or directory page I've never heard of - usually with results that relate to my origional search!

    I have not DLed Hijack this just yet as just before posting I read the thread on posting logs.

    Any one got some advice?? merry xmas and thanks in advance!
