    If you still have trouble, then copy the updated rules file from mine:
    http://www.users.on.net/~russ/rules.ref

    and put them in either location depending on your version of Windows:

    Vista/Windows 7:
    C:\Users\All Users\Application Data\Malwarebytes\Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware\rules.ref

    Windows XP:
    C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Malwarebytes\Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware\rules.ref

    check your proxy settings in both, delete your java cache using ccleaner, post the infection logs

    try avast 6 free instead of mse, and do a rootkit scan.

    where are the redirects going?


    The redirects are going all over the place - ad sites, and ebay too earlier!

    What is a rootkit scan please?
