A few weeks ago, I had the System Fix virus. I followed these steps (My link) and successfully (almost) removed the virus. I still have the issue that when I click on a link after a Google search, it will re-direct me to a random website. I also do not get real time search results as I type into the Google search bar.
I have tried multiple programs like Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware, Spybot Search and Destroy, Superanti Spyware, and many others (in safe-mode, and "regular" mode), but nothing seems to work.
Something that doesn't seem to run for me is TDSSKiller (even when I change the file name and extension).
Also, when I try to turn off my computer, the "Windows has to shut down a process" screen appears for about 10 seconds (meaning that there is something running in the background)?
I haven't gotten many viruses on my computer, but I have fixed a lot of my friends/families computers. This one has me stumped.
I would really appreciate some help!
When I tried to run gmer.exe, I received the following error:
