Thanks in advance for your reviewing this issue.
I would appreciate any insight into what is causing the search results to redirect. Please advise if you require more information.
I've tried Malwarebytes, Nortron 360, SuperAntispyware, Microsoft Defender. I've run a hijackthis log.
During this process Microsoft Defender pops up and reports a malicious threat and identified: trojan:win32/alureon.gen!U which is a results redirect threat. I removed it again. As I have had to do a couple of times before. This appears to be the culprit.
The redirecting is intermittent. Sometimes it works fine.
I run the search again and click on the same hyperlink and may connect to the correct site, redirected or get the same message.
Malware is still present. I've observed the following in the attached file.
After selecting a hyperlink from a google search the IE address icon will change to these odd icons and often redirect to Toseeka.com and other random sites.
Note the loopy icon and the green globe icons.
