My search results are being hijacked. In both Firefox 3 and IE7, I have updated XP to SP3 and IE to v8 Beta. I have installed and ran (AVG8, Ad-Aware 2008, CWShredder, ATF-Clean, SpyBot1.6, SuperAntispyware, Malwarebytes AM, CCleaner, SDfix, and maybe other). I have turned off Restore and ren in Safe Mode. Sometimes the fix will last for one Search but then goes back. The Search results look legite in title and description, but the links take you to crap advertising. I am not having popups. I have spent 3 days on and off with this proble,,,,also, everytime the problem comes back it creates a file on the desktop called "go 10.3.37.0)" its an actual 327kb file not a shortcut. This is a customes PC, it came with this problem running XP Home pre SP1. I updated everything and deleted any extra users....please help...WHAT IS DOING THIS!!! its incredibly persistant..thanks in advance, Brian
