Not sure what is going on but every time I search for something I get redirected. It flashes (JUMP) and aboutaround.com before it takes me anywhere. It redirects to everything from MSN.com to Porn sites. I would like to remove what ever it is. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks Justin

Your DNS has probably been hijacked by malware, a common technique used by malware these days. Considering the nature of the problem, I strongly recommend that you follow CastleCops' Malware Removal and Prevention procedure, a system CastleCops devised to enable users to either partially, or fully clean their systems without the direct aid of an expert.

Please read these instructions carefully. You will find the Malware Removal and Prevention Procedure here:

http://wiki.castlecops.com/Malware_Removal_and_Prevention:_Introduction

If that doesn't fix the problem, then go to this Forum, read the instructions at the top of the page carefully:

CastleCops Link/f67-Hijackthis_Spyware_Viruses_Worms_Trojans_Oh_My.html

Follow these instructions:

CastleCops Link/t102301-Hijackthis_Guidelines_Read_Before_Posting.html

and one of CC's trained 1st Responders or Security Experts will help you.

Note: You must be a CastleCops member to post for help in the HJT forum.
