Every time I try a new link in Mozilla Firefox, I am getting a blank page with this address instead:

www.googleadservices.com/pagead/conversion/1069001133/?random=1157546063593&value=1&label=PURCHASE&hl=en&gl=US&fmt=1&bg=666666

Then I have to go back one screen to reach the site I was asking for. Sometimes it is not possible to get to the site at all, especially when trying to download programs. (Yes, I've followed all the previous steps you proposed). McAfee site advisor does not recognize the googleadservices.com site as a problem.

Here is my HJT report:

Dear Metallica,

Sorry for this late answer, but somehow I never got any indication that someone has answered my initial posting. :whistling:

Here is the list of extensions on Firefox:

Talkback 1.5.0.7
Google Toolbar for Firefox
Google safe browsing
Israel Radio Toolbar
McAffee Site Advisor

Thanks!

Google for your hijack and the Israel Radio Toolbar and you will know why I asked. :whistling:

Uninstall it and you should be fine.

Hi, Pieter,

I uninstalled it and it is OK. Now, let me see if I understood why.

In Castlecops, the CLSID database indicated that code as legit. However, in the Simantec site there was an indication that this toolbar could be related to Trackware.IEMenuExt. :whistling:

How can one tell which one is the case? My husband still wants his toolbar back...

Thanks a bunch!

Hi lizglass,

Far from me to judge if that toolbar is spyware or not.
I just know it's responsible for the problems you had.

If your husband wants the toolbar back he will either have to live with the consequences or contact the developers that there is a problem.
I would be surprised if they aren't aware of it.
They may even have a solution.

Regards,
