DNSCorrect.com --- browser hijacker

moquistone · May 6, 2009

Hi, I am new to the forum -- I have tried all the recommended removal procedures on the malware guide- and I keep getting hit with this webpage that hijacks Yahoo and google in both IE and firefox --- it redirects to DNSCorrect.com - and states that yahoo doesn't exist. Today I did a search and a webpage comes up for DNSCorrect.com -- complete with FAQS stating that it is a browser optimizer - and that it will use all information that it gets from the user

I have not been able to get rid of this thing with the standard methods -- any suggestions would be appreciated.

Welcome to Major Geeks!

You have not completed the instructions in the cleaning guide until you have attached the logs as requested. The below is a quote from the cleaning procedure

Step 3: Do You Still Have Problems

Yes, I’m still having problems

DO NOT run the READ ME again!!!! Please attach your logs as given below.

If you do not already have a thread started, start a new thread otherwise post the following in your original thread. Clearly describe in detail the problems you are having and how long ago they started. Think about what you were doing at the time.

Now you need to attach (See: HOW TO: Attach Items To Your Post ) the below logs created while running the above scans

SASlog.txt log from SuperAntiSpyware.

Malwarebytes Anti-Malware log

ComboFix.txt (normally C:\ComboFix.txt)

MGlogs.zip - normally it is C:\MGlogs.zip - only attach this log from MGtools.exe DO NOT attach any logs seen in the MGtools folder.

You should attach all of your logs to one message after you have completed all scans.

Be patient after posting your logs and wait for one of the helpers to get to you. It can take a while to read thru all of the logs and to create individual fixes for you.

Also DO NOT BUMP your thread to try and get a faster answer. This will actually significantly delay getting an answer. See this: Don't Bump! It Only Hurts You!!!
