That's is the problem I'm having. It seems only a limited amount of scanners are picking up the Java exploit (so far, Microsoft Security Essentials and ESET Online Scanner has alerted me to it). But, I believe the real issue (if I'm understanding this right) is what we've been infected WITH...

No toolbars or anything like that. It's sending me to a bunch of different sites. Sometimes it will direct me to [possible malware site - removed] and then quickly direct me to another site. I'm assuming the author of this site is generating money from each "visit" to the sites it's directing...

ARGHHH!! It's back! I'm starting to get frustrated! More browser redirects! What's going on here?! Any help!?

We've recently been having problems with redirects when clicking the links of search results in our browsers (IE and Firefox). We tried a few different virus scans and nothing was able to find it. However, we did realize that Microsoft Security Essentials would not run when we clicked the...

No, I haven't done either of those. I can try as soon as I get to work, but I was hoping I could fix it without system restore. lol Any other things as I try before I get there? I'm not going to have long to work on it, and would like a few ideas before I get there. Thanks for the quick reply!

I've been trying to repair the computer at work, so any requests for system information and such will have to wait until I get back there, which is why I want to post this now. Basically, it's running a 32bit Windows 7. We were having a problem with browser redirects in IE and Firefox, so I...
