Winviruspro and IE redirected all the time problems

villaman123 · Apr 11, 2006

Apologies if this seems like a repeat thread but having searched the net for answers i have not managed to get rid of this problem no matter what i do.

Whenever i use IE it redirects me to a msn search page (sometimes others if im lucky) whenever i try to go to a link.
Also keep getting an annoying pop up sayin i have got a virus and need winvirus pro to remove it, know that this is obviously a trojan of some sort but just can't find it.

Have run Symantec Norton Anti Virus and this finds nothing so have now tried no adware and this finds 5 files which it deletes but as soon as i reconnect they come back.
The files are atdmt, atwola, doubleclick, mediaplex, server.iad.liveperson, www.stopzilla.

Also seems to find some program called bearshare which i have no idea as to what this is???

Have looked through your threads and am slightly unsure as to what im supposed to do with hijack this so am after some much needed help.

Have posted hijack log for you to check.

Any help on this would be greatly appreciated as am despairing now with what to do and getting fed up with the annoying pop ups and machine giving me grief.
