    I ran avira and avg, along with malware bytes and spyware doctor. I removed a lot but something still remains. I constantly get a re-direct when searching. the internet to "uniquesearch8" which re-directs me to a variety of other sites. When i do a search, Google also redirects me to a blank page that says " this page has been moved to here 302", which ends up a blank page or back to uniquesearch8.I can go directly to a site if i type in nba.com or nfl.com, but search does not work. I constantly get a virus pop up from somewhere that automatically starts scanning my pc so i constantly have to turn it off.

    Any help would greatly be appreciated. I attached a hijack log below. I ran combofix as well if requested
    Thanks

    So you have two anti virus programs installed and that is something you should avoid at all costs. You need to decide which of the two you would prefer to keep and uninstall the other before we continue.

    It is a bad idea because they will be attempting to access system files and system processes simultaneously, causing much inner conflict.
    You are reducing the effectiveness of each of them by doing this. It also can cause malware to go by unnoticed and it slows a PC down tremendously.

    We did not request a HJT log, we are not a HJT log reading forum, a single log from hjt doesn't give us a deep enough look inside the system in order to assist you with malware removal, and besides anything else it is built into our own tools anyway.

    Yes we need to see a log from running combofix. You need to ensure that you have followed through the below procedures which I shall link to for reference. Then once done, attach all of the requested logs.

    Welcome to Major Geeks!

    Please read ALL of this message including the notes before doing anything.

    Pleases follow the instructions in the below link:

    READ & RUN ME FIRST. Malware Removal Guide


    and attach the requested logs when you finish these instructions.
    • **** If something does not run, write down the info to explain to us later but keep on going. ****
    • Do not assume that because one step does not work that they all will not. MGtools will frequently run even when all other tools will not.

    • After completing the READ & RUN ME and attaching your logs, make sure that you tell us what problems still remain ( if any still do )!
    Helpful Notes:

    1. If you run into problems trying to run the READ & RUN ME or any of the scans in normal boot mode, you can run the steps in safe boot mode but make sure you tell us what you did later when you post logs. See the below if you do not know how to boot in safe mode:
    2. If you have problems downloading on the problem PC, download the tools and the manual updates for SUPERAntiSpyware and Malwarebytes ( links are given in the READ & RUN ME) onto another PC and then burn to a CD. Then copy them to the problem PC. You will have to skip getting updates if (and only if) your internet connection does not work. Yes you could use a flash drive too but flash drives are writeable and infections can spread to them.
    3. If you cannot seem to login to an infected user account, try using a different user account (if you have one) in either normal or safe boot mode and running only SUPERAntiSpyware and Malwarebytes while logged into this other user account. Then reboot and see if you can log into the problem user account. If you can then run SUPERAntiSpyware, Malwarebytes, ComboFix and MGtools on the infected account as requested in the instructions.
    4. To avoid additional delay in getting a response, it is strongly advised that after completing the READ & RUN ME you also read this sticky:
    Any additional post is a bump which will add more delay. Once you attach the logs, your thread will be in the work queue and as stated our system works the oldest threads FIRST.
