    For some reason my hompage works fine and most web pages work fine but certain webpages I go to it will redirect me to a ekvbtw.outhosy.info/search/php web page. It is mostly random when it does it but I can never go to those same webpages. I tryed the HJT by reading the instructions and runing ad-aware and nortorn. I acually found the programs inetsvc.exe and inetmgr. I think i delete it but I still can't get to certain webpages. Not sure what else I can do? Please Help....

    I followed the steps listed and still no luck. Most of the programs says my system is clean except for some spyware that ad-adware got rid off. The same problem remains, the hompage works fine its just that certain websites I go to it will relocate me to that ekvbhost page. NOt sure if I am being hijack or whats going on and why only on certain web pages.

    Take a look at whats in your hosts file. You did not post you OS!

    Assuming it is WinXP:

    Please click Start, Run, and enter the following command
    notepad c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts

    When the notepad window opens hit CTRL-A to select all the info in the window then hit CTRL-C to copy all the info. Then come back here and paste the info into a new window.

    Alternately, when the notepad window comes up you could chose File, Save As, and save the file to a new name like myhosts.txt. Save it where you can find it. Then upload it here as an attachment.
