Google redirects my webpage

Hi
Just recently my computer is somehow redirecting my webpages I click on when I do a google search. For example, I search for something related to cars in google. When I click that link it takes me to a webpage that has nothing to do with what I searched for. ie spyware or adult stuff. It takes 2 or 3 times of clicking on the original link to get the page I want from google.
I have tried Ad - Ware 2007 and Spybot Search and destroy with no luck.
All help greatly appreciated!!
BTW....this is a fresh install of XP SP2 as I just lost my previous HD last week. (It is getting fixed as we speak...new heads). I havent had luck on my side this past week! Everything worked fine for a week until today.

2. Download, and install Spybot (if you don't have it) from here: http://www.safer-networking.org/en/download/index.html

3. Close all windows, except for HJT.

5. Click on "Fix It" button.

6. Restart your computer in Safe Mode (keep tapping F8 key, when your computer starts)

8. Open Windows Explorer. Go Tools>Folder Options, put a checkmark next to "Show hidden files, and folders".

9. Delete following files (if they still exist):

nothing to remove

10. Turn off System Restore:

- Windows XP:
   1. Click Start.
   2. Right-click the My Computer icon, and then click Properties.
   3. Click the System Restore tab.
   4. Check "Turn off System Restore".
   5. Click Apply.   
   6.  When turning off System Restore, the existing restore points will be deleted. Click Yes to do this.
   7. Click OK.
- Windows Vista:

   2. Right-click the Computer icon, and then click Properties.
   3. Click on System Protection under the Tasks column on the left side
   4. Click on Continue on the "User Account Control" window that pops up
   5. Under the System Protection tab, find Available Disks
   6. Uncheck the box for any drive you wish to disable system restore on (in most cases, drive "C:")
   7. When turning off System Restore, the existing restore points will be deleted. Click "Turn System Restore Off" on the popup window to do this.
   8. Click OK

11. Restart in Normal Mode.

12. Turn System Restore on.

13. Run HJT again, and post back its log back here.

Neither one should be my ISP (I dont think), especially the AMSTERDAM one.....should I delete them both anyway?

Fix them all, then. Post back with new log.

Ok.....hows this looking?

Did Spybot remove anything?

Are you still having problems?

I think it was Zlob DNS changer it removed.
tried it a dozrn or so times....so far so good!

[Malware Removal Specialist]

We should run another scan to be sure it is gone. Zlob is a trojan and can be well hidden.

Please download Combofix by sUBs from either here or here

Save Combofix.exe to your your Desktop.

1. Double click combofix.exe & follow the prompts. (from the keyboard select 1 and press enter at the prompt)
2. When finished, it will produce a log for you.
3. Attach that log in your next reply.

Note:
Do not mouseclick combofix's window while it's running. That may cause your computer to stall

Your HJT log looks good. No more redirections?

I have tried it again today and it still seems to be working good!
Thanks for the help!

Cool thing 
Stay safe

Crap.....btcar.com and 22traffic.com are coming up again when I try and link to a page from google.
Now what? I have been away for 8 hrs and things were good before I left!!

Thanks

Post new HJT log, and in a moment I'll have couple of programs, you'll want to install to prevent same thing from happening in the future.

I don't know, how I missed it before, but I can't see any antivirus program, nor firewall running on your computer.
Do you have at least Windows firewall enabled?

this thread  needs  Chris.....   I'll see if  he's  around...   

unless Broni*   who is quite capable  nails it  1st*

1. Turn your Windows firewall on (for now):
   a.   Click Start, click Run, type Firewall.cpl, and then click OK.
   b.   On the General tab, click On (recommended), and then click OK.

2. Download, and install free antivirus AVG: http://free.grisoft.com/

3. Download (don't install, yet) free Comodo firewall: http://www.personalfirewall.comodo.com/

4. Turn your Windows firewall off:
   a.   Click Start, click Run, type Firewall.cpl, and then click OK.
   b.   On the General tab, click Off (not recommended), and then click OK.

5. Install Comodo firewall.

6. Run full AVG scan.

7. Post new HijackThis log.

My Windows firewall showed it being on.
Just downloading other stuff.....will post shortly

Good

AVG-No threats found

AVG-No threats found

Cool....Let me check your HJT log...

Your HJT log is nice, and clean. It looks good with all that new protections.
I'm gonna give you two more weapons to your protective arsenal....
Download, and install (both free):
- Spyware Terminator: http://www.spywareterminator.com/
- a-squared: http://www.emsisoft.com/en/software/free/
and you're gonna be good to go.

Still getting redirected 

I give up?

Search your computer for:
hosts
file, and either attach it here, or if it's too big, email it to me.

Open it in Notepad.

I let spy bot run last night.
It picked up 16 infections including zlob again.
I deleted, but Im sure they will be back

Here are the hosts I found...

hosts
Imhosts

not sure, but I couldnt open them in notepad

ok....here they are

# Copyright (c) 1993-1999 Microsoft Corp.
#
# This is a sample HOSTS file used by Microsoft TCP/IP for Windows.
#
# This file contains the mappings of IP addresses to host names. Each
# entry should be kept on an individual line. The IP address should
# be placed in the first column followed by the corresponding host name.
# The IP address and the host name should be separated by at least one
# space.
#
# Additionally, comments (such as these) may be inserted on individual
# lines or following the machine name denoted by a '#' symbol.
#
# For example:
#
#      102.54.94.97     rhino.acme.com          # source server
#       38.25.63.10     x.acme.com              # x client host

127.0.0.1       localhost





# Copyright (c) 1993-1999 Microsoft Corp.
#
# This is a sample LMHOSTS file used by the Microsoft TCP/IP for Windows.
#
# This file contains the mappings of IP addresses to computernames
# (NetBIOS) names.  Each entry should be kept on an individual line.
# The IP address should be placed in the first column followed by the
# corresponding computername. The address and the computername
# should be separated by at least one space or tab. The "#" character
# is generally used to denote the start of a comment (see the exceptions
# below).
#
# This file is compatible with Microsoft LAN Manager 2.x TCP/IP lmhosts
# files and offers the following extensions:
#
#      #PRE
#      #DOM:<domain>
#      #INCLUDE <filename>
#      #BEGIN_ALTERNATE
#      #END_ALTERNATE
#      \0xnn (non-printing character support)
#
# Following any entry in the file with the characters "#PRE" will cause
# the entry to be preloaded into the name cache. By default, entries are
# not preloaded, but are parsed only after dynamic name resolution fails.
#
# Following an entry with the "#DOM:<domain>" tag will associate the
# entry with the domain specified by <domain>. This affects how the
# browser and logon services behave in TCP/IP environments. To preload
# the host name associated with #DOM entry, it is necessary to also add a
# #PRE to the line. The <domain> is always preloaded although it will not
# be shown when the name cache is viewed.
#
# Specifying "#INCLUDE <filename>" will force the RFC NetBIOS (NBT)
# software to seek the specified <filename> and parse it as if it were
# local. <filename> is generally a UNC-based name, allowing a
# centralized lmhosts file to be maintained on a server.
# It is ALWAYS necessary to provide a mapping for the IP address of the
# server prior to the #INCLUDE. This mapping must use the #PRE directive.
# In addtion the share "public" in the example below must be in the
# LanManServer list of "NullSessionShares" in order for client machines to
# be able to read the lmhosts file successfully. This key is under
# \machine\system\currentcontrolset\services\lanmanserver\parameters\nullsessionshares
# in the registry. Simply add "public" to the list found there.
#
# The #BEGIN_ and #END_ALTERNATE keywords allow multiple #INCLUDE
# statements to be grouped together. Any single successful include
# will cause the group to succeed.
#
# Finally, non-printing characters can be embedded in mappings by
# first surrounding the NetBIOS name in quotations, then using the
# \0xnn notation to specify a hex value for a non-printing character.
#
# The following example illustrates all of these extensions:
#
# 102.54.94.97     rhino         #PRE #DOM:networking  #net group's DC
# 102.54.94.102    "appname  \0x14"                    #special app server
# 102.54.94.123    popular            #PRE             #source server
# 102.54.94.117    localsrv           #PRE             #needed for the include
#
# #BEGIN_ALTERNATE
# #INCLUDE \\localsrv\public\lmhosts
# #INCLUDE \\rhino\public\lmhosts
# #END_ALTERNATE
#
# In the above example, the "appname" server contains a special
# character in its name, the "popular" and "localsrv" server names are
# preloaded, and the "rhino" server name is specified so it can be used
# to later #INCLUDE a centrally maintained lmhosts file if the "localsrv"
# system is unavailable.
#
# Note that the whole file is parsed including comments on each lookup,
# so keeping the number of comments to a minimum will improve performance.
# Therefore it is not advisable to simply add lmhosts file entries onto the
# end of this file.

I just tried linking from google again after deleting those files from spy bot.
It immediately re directed me twice before getting the right page.

From post #10

We should run another scan to be sure it is gone. Zlob is a trojan and can be well hidden.

Please download Combofix by sUBs from either here or here

Save Combofix.exe to your your Desktop.

1. Double click combofix.exe & follow the prompts. (from the keyboard select 1 and press enter at the prompt)
2. When finished, it will produce a log for you.
3. Attach that log in your next reply.

Note:
Do not mouseclick combofix's window while it's running. That may cause your computer to stall

Your "hosts" file is clean....

Next step:

Download and scan with SUPERAntiSpyware Free for Home Users:
http://www.superantispyware.com/

    * Double-click SUPERAntiSpyware.exe and use the default settings for installation.

I see you had installed a-squared, did it find anything?

Is the problem still there?

So far, so good. I think combofix may have done the trick.

Now that I have like 8 or more additional programs on my computer, which ones should I keep? Which ones should I delete? Which ones should I setup to do regulat scans?

Thanks for the help!!

Obviously your firewall, and your antivirus.
Keep "a-squared", and "Spyware Terminator", because they give you real time protection.
For occasional use have Spybot, and Ad-aware on hand. Once a month, should be plenty.

I'm glad, your puter is back to normal.

In addition to what Broni has suggested you might want to look at WinPatrol 2007 WinPatrol 2007 is free. There is also a WinPatrol Plus but it is not free.

As a robust SECURITY MONITOR, WinPatrol will alert you to hijackings, malware attacks and critical changes made to your computer without your permission.

=====

IMPORTANT STEP!

Go to Start > Run and copy and paste next command in the field:

ComboFix /u



Make sure there's a space between Combofix and /
Then hit Enter.

This will uninstall Combofix, delete its related folders and files, reset your clock settings, hide file extensions, hide the system/hidden files and resets System Restore again.

=====

Last is a read from Tony Klein which has some great tips for tightening security. So how did I get infected in the first place?

Safe surfing.....

Thanks again for the help! Everything is still working great!!

We're happy for you
