PS -> I do have HijackThis, and will upload a log upon request. I use this computer as my livelihood, and I don't want to have to reformat and start over with a new install. **Malware Bytes, SpyBot and AVG find NOTHING** But I know something is terribly wrong.Īnyone who can help me bring my Windows 7 (64 bit) PC back to its healthy state, I would be forever grateful.

Then when I typed in an address and pressed enter, nothing would happen besides the tab flashing - I rebooted and (for now) everything seems to be okay, except for the original complaints. Out of the blue, Google Keyword Tool would not load, and all graphics disappeared from any sites I was at or going to (as if the formatting was turned off). While working on a WordPress site for a client, I went to do Keyword research with Google and purchase some icons from PSD-Graphics. Also, when trying to go to most blogs or Google sites, it is numerously redirected to other sites.Īnd while browsing or working, randomly tabs will open to other websites (unless I catch them in time). When I do a search with Google, often times the top results will not show the link (I have to copy the http address and paste it in the bar). The update fixed the Google search, and yet. I even updated Firefox, uninstalled IE7 and then installed IE8 (64 bit will load up, but not regular IE). I have tried everything I can think of, and more. I then found that my search (Google in Firefox, Bing in IE) was hijacked, leading to a different website and opening more tabs again! Looking in Task Manager, I would (and still do) find several instances of Explorer, iExplore, and Firefox loaded into memory. So I tried clicking numerous times (once every time the "wait circle" would stop and no browser would appear) until either IE or Firefox would eventually come up. Then I found that even Firefox didn't want to load.

Internet Explorer refused to load, and although Firefox would, it constantly was opening a new tab to some other website.

The computer itself was better, but not the browsers. I then ran AVG, found a few viruses, and took care of them as well. I ran SpyBot and Malware Bytes, which found 49 malware and 23 other problems. Here is the timeline, and what is still occurring, which I cannot figure out how to fix.Ībout a month ago, the computer became nearly unusable. My name is Jude, and I am in need of some help.įor a month now I have tried to fix these problems by myself, but I now realize I need help to get this fixed.
