I want google back!!!!!

bettiboop

Hi guys

A few days ago I posted because I had a virus on my laptop. Thanks to the fab advice I got, I managed to get rid of it by running malwarebytes anti malware. Since then I have noticed that any time I perform a google search, and I click on the link I want, my search gets redirected to a search engine called MoxieSearch.com. In order to get my google search to work, I have to come out of MoxieSearch.com and google again. Google always works 2nd time around, but never 1st time. It's so annoying!!:mad:

Does anyone have any advice/ideas re this.

Thanks

and post the log it produces for me to look at, there may still be an infection

Browntoa

if it still happens after a reboot then run this

http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/combofix/how-to-use-combofix

and copy the log that produces back on here as well

bettiboop

Browntoa!!

You are a star, :beer: .

Google is back to normal!!

What was wrong with my laptop?

Bettiboop

Browntoa

probably one of those two 02 entries

if it comes back , let me know and we will try some other stuff

might be worth updating and running Malwarebytes on a full scan wen you get time

bettiboop

Browntoa

Still none the wiser, LOL.

Cheers for your help anyway, you will be my first port of call if it comes back.
