Let's try something different now that we know that redirection is only happening in firefox.

Step 1

Please close all running programs and Run OTL
  • Under the Custom Scans/Fixes box at the bottom, paste in the following

    :OTL
    FF - prefs.js..extensions.enabledItems: {6c821380-3bfa-4a8a-9dc2-a522bc32ff1f}:1.0
    FF - prefs.js..network.proxy.type: 0
    [2011/05/30 09:22:30 | 000,000,000 | ---D | M] (XUL Cache) -- C:\Documents and Settings\Linda\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\q95jpmru.default\extensions\{6c821380-3bfa-4a8a-9dc2-a522bc32ff1f}
    O2 - BHO: (no name) - {0365219B-29D6-4817-96A3-B1052EF56E69} - File not found
    [2011/05/27 17:58:57 | 000,000,019 | ---- | C] () -- C:\WINDOWS\System32\288a2a54
    [2011/05/27 17:14:26 | 000,001,265 | ---- | C] () -- C:\WINDOWS\System32\141579823
    [2011/05/27 17:14:11 | 000,000,148 | -HS- | C] () -- C:\WINDOWS\System32\677018883

    :Files
    ipconfig /flushdns /c

    :Commands
    [purity]
    [Reboot]

  • Then click the Run Fix button at the top
  • Let the program run unhindered, reboot the PC when it is done
  • Post the fix log it produces in your next reply or you can find it in C:\_OTL\MovedFiles
Step 2

Download ComboFix here :

Link 1
Link 2


* IMPORTANT !!! Save ComboFix.exe to your Desktop


  • Disable your AntiVirus and AntiSpyware applications, usually via a right click on the System Tray icon. They may otherwise interfere with our tools. If you don't know how to disable them then just continue on.
  • Double click on ComboFix.exe & follow the prompts.
  • As part of it's process, ComboFix will check to see if the Microsoft Windows Recovery Console is installed. With malware infections being as they are today, it's strongly recommended to have this pre-installed on your machine before doing any malware removal. It will allow you to boot up into a special recovery/repair mode that will allow us to more easily help you should your computer have a problem after an attempted removal of malware.
  • Follow the prompts to allow ComboFix to download and install the Microsoft Windows Recovery Console, and when prompted, agree to the End-User License Agreement to install the Microsoft Windows Recovery Console.

**Please note: If the Microsoft Windows Recovery Console is already installed, ComboFix will continue it's malware removal procedures.

Once the Microsoft Windows Recovery Console is installed using ComboFix, you should see the following message:

Posted Image


Click on Yes, to continue scanning for malware.

When finished, it shall produce a log for you. Please include the C:\\ComboFix.txt log in your next reply.

Step 3

Test you firefox now for redirection. If you still get redirected then:

1. click Start then Run... and type firefox -safe-mode then press OK button. Do you get redirected in Firefox Safemode?

2. Does this PC have recovery partition on it? Usually brand name PCs like HP or DELL has it.

Step 4


Please don't forget to include these items in your reply:

  • OTL fix log
  • Combofix log
  • Answers to my questions
It would be helpful if you could post each log in separate post

I will have to do the Combofix this evening. I have to go to work now.

Also this is a debranded HP computer and it did not come with an OS or any software/manuals. I had to have Windows installed on it once I got the computer so I'm sure it doesn't have a recovery partition on it.

I tried 3 times to run ComboFix. I enabled snooze on my CA security. Every time I try to run ComboFix I get a warning that running it will cause damage to my CA security. I don't know how to get ComboFix to run.

Some antivirus softwares don't like Combofix. Can you please unistall your CA and run Combofix again. We will install it later when we finish with the clean.
