Hi,

I am experiencing what seems a common problem of search selections jumping to incorrect sites. Very annoying!

I have performed the AVG install and scan as per the Read Me post. The results are below along with the hijackthis log.

Can anyone help me please.

Your log looks clean and AVG cleaned everything it found. Could you be more specific and tell me exactly what the problem is in detail. Thx.

Hi,

Thankyou very much for taking the time to look at my log, after running AVG I didn't use the search again as I presumed it would still be a pain. But, all is ggod now ABG seems to have done the trick.

Thank again

Glad to hear everything is working now.

check this out, it has google redirect fix
