Well yeah, Im having alot of trouble recently eh?

Joystick... This... My life is great! haha!

Any way,

Problem:

Firefox opens random tabs to malware sites which are either blocked, or are dangerous.

Malware hijacks Search engine results upon clicking on a result [Redirection to malware sites]

I have tried nurmerous programs such as AVG, Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware, and Spyware blaster. Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware removed some, but not all of it. Im only guessing some is buried deeper.

Can any one help me?

Cipher, Have you read through my help topic on this?

After you have read though Jinxx "How to remove Malware" topic and every thing has been cleaned ect... download these addons for firefox; Adblock Plus & NoScript

Takes a little bit to get used to, but once you have worked it out these two tools help stop alot of the crap you get though browsing the internet, well it seems that way to me

PS you might what to give this a try "PC Tools Threatfire" as well after every thing is cleaned

Cipher, Have you read through my help topic on this?

Yes, and they have done nothing.

What sites are you being directed to exactly? That might be the key to finding what you got going on

O.k. The latest baddie out there is a new version of the Win32 virus.
I have a customer now that has been infected by this and it is a major pain to eradicate.

Need to know if this is what you have been getting hit with. The message from AVG will say something like WIN32/Patched.FR or Win32/Patched.FS when Explorer or Winlogon are used.
The latest version of Malwarebytes seems to pick it up and if it is what you have, we'll need to use some specialized software to get rid of it.

There is no virus that can't be eradicated. Some just take a bit longer than others.

S!

@madcat,

WOT (Web of Trust) seems to work quite well for these kinds of sites. It puts up a popup as soon as it detects that you are trying to go to a site in the list and warns you not to go there.
Yes, as always, it's FREE:

Ok, so case now is IObit Security has removed some malware AFAIK.

Hope this has cleared the case.

Thanks for all of your help.

Specially you Jinx, you seem to be an expert.

Glad your system seems to be feeling better.

If you need more help, let me know and I'll have you d/l a small scanner that will print out a log that we can check for actively running scripts.
