Possible virus?

[crispy2010]

If I yahoo something, ie: gmail, it comes up with the proper search results. When I hit the link, gmail, it takes me to some crazy off the wall site, never the same site though. It is not pron sites or anything but stuff like "car shopper" or the such. Anyone else had this happen? Virus?

Thanx!

You probably have some kind of malware, yep. Check the Consolidated Security Thread that's stickied at the top, and John's Malware Removal Guide.

Once you find the malware, ask yourself how it got in the door, then close that door. some general security suggestions for home users

Hrmm, nothing found outta almost 20 scanners. I have seen this before but no real awnsers. Would like to get others that have this problem to respond. I am well protected, could format and reinstall in 30 minutes, but want to find a true fix to this!

Thanx for the help!

1) Did HijackThis come up with anything out of the ordinary? Post your HJT log if you want.

2) Do an ipconfig /all from a command prompt and post your DNS servers' IP addresses here. Are they your ISP's own DNS servers?

3) Also check your router/gateway/modem DNS settings. While it may sound far-fetched, there's evidently malware that will use JavaScript to modify your router's DNS settings :Q Symantec's writeup on this, scroll down to JavaScript Malware.

It seems like a spyware symptom. HJT logs can turn up something

Anything look funny there?

 

[mechBgon]

I think your DNS servers got hijacked. Fix all of the O17 entries and think about switching to a Limited or Standard user account.

Also, go to Add/Remove Programs, remove all your existing versions of Sun Java (rebooting as needed), then get Java Runtime Environment (JRE) 6 from here. Run the Secunia online checkup to see if you need patches for other stuff.
