Hello Experts, humbly seeking advice....
Have tried a bunch of free downloads to no avail. Have a redirect virus that has trashed all of my search engines. Santa Rosa Computers suggested I try Hijackthis, and then seek expert help to identify the malware. If that does not work, then they will do it for me for $180. Not to begrudge the company their fee,I have stuff that I could spend that on. Anyone help?

Hi LuckyJames, and welcome to Bleeping Computer.

Please follow our Preparation Guide For Use Before Using Malware Removal Tools and Requesting Help, and post the logs requested! Since you're using a 64bit system, there is no need for a Gmer scan - post just the DDS.txt and Attach.txt logs...
