    you need to get MAlwarebytes (update and full scan) here:-

    http://www.filehippo.com/download_malwarebytes_anti_malware/

    let it delete all it finds (may need to reboot to complete) and post the log up here, then get HiJack This from here:-

    http://www.filehippo.com/download_hijackthis/

    scan and save a logfile and post it back here..

    part of mywebsearch is a browser hijacker, hence the homepage change :)

    Hi GunJack

    Thanks for the link...I used the anti malware you put up and it deleted over 350 infected wotsits...

    I can't post the log here cos it gives my name and others of my family that had infected files

    open notepad (with the MBAM log open), press ctrl + h and type the name into the find what box, then something like owner into the second box and press replace all.

    do this for all names that you do not want to be posted in the log.
