Hello,
If someone could offer some help with a redirect virus i would appreciate it greatly.
It redirects google searches to a search site out of Tempe, AZ.
It is on another laptop which i use for a children's street ministry. I am able to use this computer which is virus free to work from now but would like to clean ministry computer.
The infected computer has windows XP and avast internet security.
I tried Malwarebytes, and superantiviruse free edition with no results. I am unable to download programs on the infected computer. I downloaded tdsskiller and renamed as I read on this site. I saved on a flash drive and tried that on tghe infected computer. It found 1 threat and 6 items. When I went to copy to quarantine Avast popped up and said it blocked a Trojan. I wasn't fast enough to record what the Trojan was. In avast I saw the 6 quarantined files but the 1 threat wasn't there. Now when I try to run the tdsskiller it says can't find driver and when it runs it finds no threats. The redirect is stiill there though. I had also downloaded spybot, renamed and tried to run. the infected computer would not let it run.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you,
Pastor Barry
