    Everytime I use Yahoo or Google to search, I get a pop-up with the address http://search-to-find.com/sec.php?qq=search&pin=96676. I can't get rid of it. I've tried the recommendations in the "READ ME FIRST: Basic Spyware, Trojan And Virus Removal" thread and it STILL won't go away. Any suggestions? I would be extremely grateful if someone could help me destroy this hideous infection. Thanks.

    If you have truly run all steps, read the tutorial in this Sticky thread < Hijack This Tutorial And How To Post Your Log File > Do not post a HijackThis log until we ask you to and when we do it must be text document attachment to your message.

    Update! Due to Hijack This logs destroying search engine and web site searches, we now ask you do not post your Hijack This log file unless requested by us. It is for advanced users, so if you do not understand how to use it, you do not need it....yet. Instead, please tell us in your post what symptoms you are experiencing so we can try and resolve it that way. When, and if, we ask you to post your log file, please attach it as a file. To do this save the log file and select manage attachments in a new thread to upload it. All running programs should be closed, including your web browser, e-mail, items in the tray, anything you can close... Close before running Hijack This!

    Do NOT run Hijack This from the Desktop, a temp folder or choose run from the download. Place it in its own folder, for example C:\Program Files\HJT

    Then post a HijackThis log as a .txt file attachment.
