I recently downloaded a software with malware on it. Ever since when I perform a google search on IE or Firefox and then click on a result I am taken to a advertisment page. I have run complete scans on ad aware 2008 numerous occassions. They find malware and I delete it. However when I use the browser the problem seems to persist. Please let me know if anything else can be done.

Thanks

Hi

Download and install TrendMicro HijackThis
* Once installed open HijackThis by clicking Start > Programs > HijackThis and click the button labeled
Do a system scan only

* Click the scan button in the lower left hand corner of the interface and HijackThis will quickly scan your system.
* Once the scan is complete the scan button will now read save log. Click this button to save the log file to your PC. Once you select where you would like to save the file it will open in your systems default text editor. Typically this application is Notepad. Post the log here.
