Hi Amigos,
A chum of mine is having troubles with his pages always going to an advertising site first before giving him requested page.
He has updated MalwareBytes and run it.
He is 550 miles away.
He cannot start in Safe mode.
Here is a look at his HJT log:
Any help would be appreciated before I give him some bad advice.

I suggest you read the 'Start Here' topic found HERE. With these self-help tools you have a high chance of fixing the problems on your own. If you are still having problems after following Step 3 of the guide, continue with Step 4 and 5 and post in the Malware Forum. If you are unable to run any programs, Please create a topic stating what you have tried so far and that you are unable to run any programs. Also, Please do NOT post the logs in this thread.

If you are still having issues after the malware expert gives you a clean bill of health, Please return to THIS thread and we will pursue other options to help you solve your current problem(s).

Hullo,

We tried the steps outlined in the "Here" link and still have the redirecting.
Accordingly I am starting a thread in the "Malware Forum".
Thanks for your help so far,
Max.
