Possible Spyware\Redirects Help

Hi There

I was going to post eariler because i was actually having the same problem as higenbs1, My google results would sometimes redirect me to monstermarketplace.com or other search sites.
i was going to post my Hijackthis log to contribute into finding a solution, but i actually ended up fixing the problem myself...

in my hijackThis log, there was the following line
O2 - BHO: (no name) - {51CB32F5-76EC-A22B-F9F1-0676A5FCD480} - C:\WINDOWS\system32\wwwtmei.dll

i went to my system32 directory, and found "wwwtmei.dll ", it was not actively running so i was able to move it from that directory (i moved it instead of deleting it to make sure it wasent a nessasary file)

i then went into my registry editor, seached for "wwwtmei.dll ", and it found one entry located here
"HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{51CB32F5-76EC-A22B-F9F1-0676A5FCD480}\InprocServer32 "

i then exported, then deleted the entry, after that, google was no longer redirecting, i was able to search fine...

i cant say if this will fix the problem for higenbs1, since his hijackthis log dosen't seem to have the same entry... but it worked for me.
