Search Results Redirect

Mr.Spider · January 29, 2009

I've tried cleaning my system but something keeps coming back and redirecting my Google search results to places like Coupon Mountain, Bizrate and in one instance, the Encore resort in Las Vegas. Neither MalwareBytes, McAfee or Spybot seem to find it. Help!

Please ensure you read this guide carefully and install the Recovery Console first.

Also,
