Know how to fix this ????
Damn virus/parasite has hijacked my browser.
Any adult domain that I type in hijacks me and sends me to a bunch of different paysites. I have tried everything, anyone know about this ? Thanks, |
Simple solution is to trash your PC and get a new Mac G5. You will never have a problem like that again and no virus problems?
|
Sounds kind of like spyware stuff. You might want to install a freeware ad detection program. You would be surprised with how much crap is installed on your computer. At least I was:)
|
install linux and/or use opera
;) another solution is to use Spybot Search and destroy |
If all else fails try deleting or clearing your host file...
|
Check your host file, search your hard drive though, a new virus adds a new one besides the one in your system32/drivers/etc file and changes your registry to look for it rather than the other one.
|
I have been running the spy removers, cannot get the
damn thing off of it. The best so far is Spy Sweeper by Webroot, damn people who make this shit. |
JR what got installed? Give more info see if i can help

and since you're getting a mac, why not cut off your legs too... Nobody seems to ever mention the fatal errors macs get just as often as windows does. Or how it's a much bigger deal to deal with them when they do. Or how when something does go wrong on a Mac, you're fucked. Or the disgusting lack of quality games with which to pass the time. Mac ownership is a fucking cult. |
Here read this, it is probably what is going on

starts to load then automatically sends me to a bunch of random sites with someones fucking codes in place. Its a parasite of some sort, not being detected by Spy Sweeper. But it makes it impossible to work...:mad: |

I have worked on Macs for more than 12 years and never had anything more than a few crashes. Now with system 10+ i never worry, none of our Macs have crashed since we installed it. When a program crashes the computer doesn't so i can still keep working or just reopen the program. Wake up Macs are by far the most stable, and now with the G5 the most productive computers around. You stick with your PCs and I.E. browsers and keep posting on GFY about all your problems while i keep on working !! |

You might want to try a couple spyware removal programs .. I highly recommend AdAware.
|
Hammer and duct tape.
|
Or rather than forking out 2 grand or more on a G5, for an inferior product, you can install Linux, learn it, love it, and it will take care of your virus problems simply because it won't have them... Windows is evil, it's open to any and all things, it allows all sorts of traffic, no wonder you mac lovers hate PCs, because you haven't tasted a real OS before... Hell, OSX is based off BSD :)

Yes, AdAware is excellent ! |
If you want to continue to use windows, I have a simple solution located on our server at work: http://www.i2g.net/hijack.exe - This basically looks at the registry strings and finds what has changed and allows you to check them and get rid of them, it does the job!

It's probably spyware, I had a same type of problem. Either run adaware 6.0 and try to scan your PC or just go and edit your registry and search for one of the URLs that are popping up on you, once you find it, delete all occurrences in the registry.
BTW do this ONLY if you know how to manage your registry or you will screw up your windows more than it already is. Another solution is FORMAT C: :) |
if anyone have similiar problem with search engines domains (google,altavista,alltheweb etc.)
you may try this Symantec Security Response i've got this shit at 28 sep somewhere from web it's very clever cause standard hosts file looks normal, qhosts just created other copy and windows was using the second one instead the correct one |
I still can't get this damn hijacker shit removed.
I have tried alot of these solutions, shit fuck damn! Oh well, |
clear your host file! ;)
