Help requested for persistent StartNow bar in IE

[FelixAgrippa]

Hi MB Forum,

I have been unable to shake the StartNow redirect bar in IE. I normally use Chrome, but it disconcerts me to think that it is still lurking around the laptop. Using latest AVG and MBAM, neither of which were able to detect anything. I have run the DDS scan and am posting my log below. Thanks for all your help!

So I ran a full scan of the most recently updated MBAM last night. The results are pasted below. As I mentioned in my first email. MBAM has not detected anything but I still have the StartNow search tool when using IE and the homepage is redirected to an MSN rather than Google search. What should I do?

2. ComboFix may reset a number of Internet Explorer's settings, including making I-E the default browser.

3. Combofix prevents autorun of ALL CD, floppy and USB devices to assist with malware removal & increase security. If this is an issue or makes it difficult for you -- please tell your helper.

4. CF disconnects your machine from the internet. The connection is automatically restored before CF completes its run. If CF runs into difficulty and terminates prematurely, the connection can be manually restored by restarting your machine.
