Pls help- Fake security messages in IE

Hi
I have 2 browsers Mozilla Firefox & IE.
I'm getting fake security messages in Internet explorer some antivirus starts running the scan in my IE browser. Also thro' Firefox i'm unable to login to any sites like yahoo, gmail.
I have McAfee Security Suite but its not much of a help, since the scan detected a virus, quarantined it but again the same problem in IE & Firefox.
I was unable to run HJT first but i ran it in Safe mode & here is the log file....
Can someone pls help me....

Re: Pls help- Fake security messages in IE

Open hikacthis, place a check beside this and fix it:

R1 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Search Page = http://server.toolbar.rediff.com/too...l?mode=toolbar

R3 - URLSearchHook: Rediff Toolbar - {12F02779-6D88-4958-8AD3-83C12D86ADC7} - C:\Program Files\Rediff Toolbar\3.0\redifftoolbar.dll

O3 - Toolbar: Rediff Toolbar - {12F02779-6D88-4958-8AD3-83C12D86ADC7} - C:\Program Files\Rediff Toolbar\3.0\redifftoolbar.dll

Then post back with a hiackthis log from version 2.0.2
