I recently got the annoying virus/malware which causes your Google search results to redirect to some random other website. Many searches later and I landed on this fantastic site. I did all the stickied stuff at the top of this thread and appear to be pretty clean. (On a possibly related note, each time I run the Microsoft malicious software tool, my primary DNS is blanked out in the TCP/IP properties tab....I'm on a static IP, by the way. This the same bug?)
Anyways, here are the most recent log files I have for Malwarebytes, Hijack This! and the EOS online scan.

On top of these, this is the only infected file the malicious software tool finds when I run a full scan with it: Trojan: WinNT/Alureon.C
Hopefully all is well and I can sleep easy, but I came home from work and there were about 15 IE windows open with the same "advertisement." Can't remember what it was, but I essentially had to restart as my Avast! anti-virus had to close for some unspecified reason.
THANKS!
