Browser issues

abrown76 · 5th September 2008

Hello,

I'm hoping that you all could help me. I have 3 main problems:

1. Whenever I try to visit certain sites my browser does nothing
2. Google search results take me to other search pages, rather than results
3. Gmail won't load correctly

I've run Ad-Aware 2008, Spybot S&D 1.5.2 and Avast 4.8. All were updated immediately before searches were run. They got rid of many other issues, but I still have this browser problem.

My browsers will not let me visit Panda Activescan or Housecall. I just tried to post my HijackThis log here, but I think the Malware blocks me from posting if there's a HJT log. Should I post it as screenshot?

Thanks in advance,
Aaron

It seems like it will let me post this section of my HJT log:

Looks like Malwarebyte's Anti-malware took care of the issue. Thanks for the site and I'll be back.
