Re: Google hijack?

I can't view the larger version of your screenshot, probably because the file name is so long. Can you try renaming it to something shorter and uploading it again?

What exactly do you mean by "Google trying to access your computer"?

In the meantime, check your C:\Windows\Help directory for a file called Hosts, and if you find it there, delete it. Also try downloading and running the QHosts removal tool from Symantec here: »www.symantec.com/avcenter/FixQhost.exe

Finally, can you download and run the program Hijack This from here: »www.spywareinfo.com/~merijn/file···this.zip

On the opening screen, click the scan button, then choose save log file, save it somewhere, open the log file with a text editor and copy and paste the contents here.

So, I've done all the above, and nothing. I've attached the Qhosts search, and found no hosts directory in my help directory.

My toolbar settings are above. Nothing special.
