Are you sure Cookies are enabled? The SafeSearch function uses them, and if they aren't tuned on, any changes to SafeSearch aren't recorded.

unlovedwarrior · « **Reply #17 on:** September 11, 2007, 11:15:52 PM »

clean junk files.. might help never know and then run the issues scan a couple of times (save each time it asks)

Aldom92 · « **Reply #18 on:** September 11, 2007, 11:46:18 PM »

ok. i cleaned up my mess, ran the issues scan until it was completely clean, but i still have the same problem

. however i noticed something new.... if i search on the web, safesearch is on. if i search images, strict safesearch is on, and if i search video, safesearch is completely off.

should i try firefox now?

whats CA?? hijackthis its a program to help detect malware. just make sure you make a folder on your desktop for it..

The Saviour · « **Reply #24 on:** September 12, 2007, 12:19:20 AM »

Check to see if CA has a setting that has disabled cookies...

Since your Google preferences aren't being remembered...it's either that or you may want to clear your browser's cache of Temporary Internet files to see if this doesn't fix the problem.

Well, we haven't forgotten about you, but maybe you should ask a mod. to move this into the Viruses and Spyware forum, because that's what this has evolved into. Really, CBMatt is the guy for HiJackThis logs, but I don't think he's going to be looking in Other for them.

No point in moving it because it's not being caused by a virus.

I just had a bit of a play with the Google preferences, after you select a preference and hit apply do you get a small box come up saying that your preferences have been saved?
Are you then automatically transfered back to the Google search page?

i recently installed ubuntu using wubi and i barely tried it out today. well anyways, i tried going to google to see if the same problem would occur, but it didnt. my preferences are perfectly fine here. but i had tried firefow on xp and still had problems.

Try it after setting your IE defaults and wait until you're redirected back to the Google search page.
You would have to do this after each time you clear your cookies.

Tools/Internet Options/Advanced Tab

Click the Restore Advanced Settings button.
Click apply and/or OK to save your settings.

I'd be curious about the last HJT entry, Google it or ask your parents.

Perhaps it's controlling your surfing habits?
