Help
About two weeks ago I began having issues with a redirect virus while using google. Both in IE & Mozilla. I did a system restore & I did not have any problems again until today. I will google, google will display results then once clicked on, I will be redirected to scour.com. I am running Windows Vista Home Edition Service Pack 2. It's an Aspire 4730z. Any help in removing this for good would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
