Hello,

I recently got infected with the go.google redirect problem. Internet Explorer started running very slowly, and I was getting redirected to ad sites when clicking on Google search results. So far, I've basically followed PhilliePhan's steps by running the following:
1.Microsoft Windows Malicious Software Removal Tool (nothing was found)
2.Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware (MBA-M) - (removed findings)
3.ESET Online Scanner (found 2 items, but I did not remove them)
4.HijackThis

Internet Explorer seems to be running at a normal speed again, but the go.google redirect problem is still there. Below are the logs.

Thanks,
Matt

Hi Dragewood and welcome to daniweb.
Sorry for the delay in a reply.
Run the ESET scanner again and this time allow it to fix everything found.
Then UPDATE Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware, the version you used for the scan was out of date. Todays version is version 1253. You should ALWAYS update MBA-M before each scan as this program has updates very often, sometimes more than once a day, and scan again, and have it fix everything found. Save the log.
Then after doing both of the above reboot. Run a new HJT scan and post back here with all three logs.
Judy

I was unable to run ESET scanner this time in Internet Explorer (it was re-directed to an ad site). So I tried going into "Safe Mode with Networking" and got a blue screen with the following message:

"A problem has been detected and windows has been shut down to prevent damage to your computer.

A process or thread crucial to your system operation has unexpectedly exited or been terminated.

If this is the first time you've seen this stop error screen, restart your computer. If this screen appears again, follow these steps:

Check to make sure any new hardware or software is properly installed.
If this is a new installation, ask your hardware or software manufacturer for any windows updates you might need.

If problems continue disable or remove any newly installed hardware or software. Disable BIOS memory options such as caching or shadowing. If you need to use safe mode to remove or disable components, restart your computer, press F8 to select advanced start up options and then select Safe Mode.

Technical information:

***Stop: 0x000000F4 (0x00000003, 0x871F68C8, 0x871F6A3C, 0x805FB02E)

Beginning dump of physical memory.
Physical memory dump complete.
Contact your system administrator or technical support group for further assistance."

So I restarted and booted Windows XP like normal, and decided to install Chrome and try to run ESET there. But after installing, every time I try to launch Chrome, I get the blue screen with the same message as above.

So that doesn't look good. Should I still try running Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware?

Thanks,
Matt

You should not be installing new programs while trying to clean the computer.
Update that MBA-M program and do a new scan and fix everything found and post the log.

So I tried updating MBA-M and got the following message:

"Update failed. Make sure you are connected to the Internet and your firewall is set to allow Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware to access the internet"

So I ran the un-update version of again MBA-M and fixed the results. Then I tried running ESET again and this time I was able to. I fixed the results. I tried running MBA-M again and still got the message from avove. Then I ran HJT. Below are the logs.

Uninstall MBA-M via Add/Remove. Reboot the computer.
Then try a new download of MBA-M
Download, install and see if you can update it.
Also run HJT and place a check mark next to the following entries;
O9 - Extra button: AIM - {AC9E2541-2814-11d5-BC6D-00B0D0A1DE45} - C:\Program Files\AIM\aim.exe
O9 - Extra button: (no name) - {CD67F990-D8E9-11d2-98FE-00C0F0318AFE} - (no file)
O16 - DPF: {56762DEC-6B0D-4AB4-A8AD-989993B5D08B} (OnlineScanner Control) - http://www.eset.eu/buxus/docs/OnlineScanner.cab
Once you have placed the check marks then click the Fix Checked button.
Exit HJT
Reboot the computer.
Try again to run the ESET scanner. Remember TURN OFF ALL antivirus programs and firewall and also turn off that Popup stopper too.
Let me know if you can then run the program.

Ok, so I uninstalled/reinstalled MBA-M and it still would not update (the same message came up as in my previous post). Next, I ran HJT and fixed the 3 entries you that you mentioned. After restarting, I was unable to connect to the ESET scanner webpage.

Obviously something is stopping these updates and now also stopping the running of ESET Scanner. Are you certain you turned off all your antivirus program, your firewall and your pop-up stopper when trying to do both?
You should also check your sun java program. Only reference to java I see is in these entries in your HJT log.
O16 - DPF: {8AD9C840-044E-11D1-B3E9-00805F499D93} (Java Runtime Environment 1.4.1_06) -
O16 - DPF: {CAFEEFAC-0014-0001-0006-ABCDEFFEDCBA} (Java Runtime Environment 1.4.1_06) -
These would indicate an out of date java.
First of all go to SunJava Downloads
Download the latest version which is version 6 update 7. Be sure to download the OFFLINE install and save it to the desktop.
Once you have done this close out all browsers. Go to Add/Remove and uninstall ALL older versions of java you find there.
Reboot the computer.
Once you have rebooted then double click that Java install icon on the desktop and install the new version. When the install is complete then go back to that download page and on the right side you should see Verify Now. Click that to verify the install was successful.
Once you have done that then see if you can run ESET Scanner again. If you cannot then try the Panda Active Scan Let it clean what it finds.

Once other thing on the update problem with MBA-M. On that update page you will see the option to change the update mirror. Click that arrow there and change to a different download location and see if that makes a difference. Occasionally the download site may be blocked by the malware on the system, or the download site itself could be busy so always try one of the others shown there.

So I went through my running Processes and made sure to end any processes that looked security/pop-up blocker related (i.e. mcshield.exe, pop-up blockers). Then I tried updating MBA-M again and it didn't work like before. But then I switched mirrors and it started downloading the update. When it was finished a message box appeared saying "The latest version of Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware has been downloaded. Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware will now close and install the latest version." But then the program just closed and nothing happened. After opening MBA-M again, the Database version remained un-updated.

After looking through my Add/Remove list, there appeared to be nothing Sun Java related to remove. So I just followed through on the rest of your instructions and installed/verified Java version 6 update 7.

I then tried running ESET Scanner again and was re-directed to an ad site. I was unable to connect to the Panda Active Scan webpage.

I will be away for the next four days. Crunchie will be checking on threads. Please follow any instructions he may give you.
