For example websites like www.autotrader.co.uk and www.youtube.com are redirected to other sites such as [bleep] sites or search sites. I know this is a problem with my Internet Explorer because When I use Mozzila Firefox this problem doesn't occur.
I've used various programs such as XoftSpy (registered) also including my Norton Antivirus Suite 2006, yet no progress has been made to solving my problem, I've tried reinstalling IE but same problem which indicates that there is a background application/process running causing the active redirection of the websites I try to access. I downloaded HiJackThis and this is what the log showed...

On searching Google I input "redir.ws" and there was a link to this site, presumably someone with the same problem but I cant seem to find the thread.
