How to stop internet redirects?
    #13000073 - 08/04/10 03:58 AM (13 years, 6 months ago)

When I google something, up top in the tab bar it will say re-direct and take me to some other site. wtf? I checked my system32/etc/host and nothing there. Deleted cookies, temp folders and all that. I would search how to stop the problem...but I get redirected every time.

You have been infected with malware.
Start with Spybot S+D, and Ad-Aware, see if that helps.

And call me crazy, but when I had AVG 8.0 I was gravy. I never had one problem. Not one. It just kept insisting that I upgrade to 9.0. Over and over. Eventually I was like whatever. Since then Ive re-installed my OS twice. My shit is always fucked up. Im not saying it was the upgrade, but ever since then Ive had nothing but problems with my computer.

Wonder if it was a trojan?

3 months ago i had the same problem. after about 2 weeks of help on forums and process of elimination it boiled up to a re-formatting. its the best thing u can do. itll take up a good four hours or more of ur day but its worth it to fix the problem and ull get that 'new computer' feeling.

Hey do you have AVG pro or the free edition? The free edition doesnt give you full control. If you need the pro edition message me and ill hook you up.

Unless you download AVG from avg.com and then use the serial number i have to upgrade it to professional.

What you have sounds more like a browser hijack malware / possibly trojan. AVG will probably not find it, doesn't sound like a virus.

You need Spybot. If that doesn't work, Malwarebytes. If that doesn't work, HijackThis.
