Greetings! I am pretty frustrated at this point-my browser is hijacked, and it is getting harder and harder to access the internet. My norton 2009 has given me a clean bill of health-as well as windows defender-so no help from them! I have switched now to firefox, and still (of course) have problems. A clue to the hijacker is that the browser at times directs me to "tooseeka", as well a a mishmash of other sites none really out of the ordinary. Norton info referred me to "hijack this" from here I was referred to your site. I do have a log from hijack this but will not post until requested I just hope I can get back to the forum to see what advice you have for me. Thank you in advance for your help!
Just wanted to add that I have windows XP home edition..... A few other symptoms: I cannot access task manager by pushing control, alt, delete. I am okay going to google, but then get redirected once I make a website choice. If I click backspace, I will be directed to the site I intended to arrive at. As long as I am at that site, I have no problems. If I choose to open another browser window, with one already open, the system will lock up. My computer is locking up frequently-and the only way I can resolve is by turning it off without shutdown procedure.. I have to click on browser shortcut twice (once-wait-then click again) to get my browser window to appear. This post has been edited by sietskesue: Mar 13 2009, 12:38 PM |
