svchost leak + search redirect

Hi - I'm an average computer user and am searching for some help as I'm having some troubles that are over my ability. As noted in the title, I have a memory leak with svchost plus google search redirect.

My first steps to try and fix this were per the www.majorgeeks.com Basic Spyware, Trojan And Virus Removal tutorial.
I ran SUPER Antispyware and MBAM and they both found a few items. When I ran combofix - I ended up with a blue screen saying "mbr.sys Driver_unloaded_without..." "stop ox000000CE".

I was able to reboot and "start with previous configuration that worked" which brings me here requesting help on my next steps.

Thanks in advance for any assistance!

Cheers

Hello,

Now that you have posted a log here: http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/t/302569/google-search-hi-jack/ you should NOT make further changes to your computer (install/uninstall programs, use special fix tools, delete files, edit the registry, etc) unless advised by a MRT Team member, nor should you ask for help elsewhere. Doing so can result in system changes which may not show in the log you already posted. Further, any modifications you make on your own may cause confusion for the helper assisting you and could complicate the malware removal process which would extend the time it takes to clean your computer.

From this point on the MRT Team should be the only members that you take advice from, until they have verified your log as clean.

Please be patient. It may take a while to get a response because the MRT Team members are EXTREMELY busy working logs posted before yours. They are volunteers who will help you out as soon as possible. Once you have made your post and are waiting, please DO NOT make another reply until it has been responded to by a member of the MRT Team. Generally the staff checks the forum for postings that have 0 replies as this makes it easier for them to identify those who have not been helped. If you post another response there will be 1 reply. A team member, looking for a new log to work may assume another MRT Team member is already assisting you and not open the thread to respond.

Please be patient. It may take several days to get a response but your log will be reviewed and answered as soon as possible. I advise checking your topic once a day for responses as the e-mail notification system is unreliable.

To avoid confusion, I am closing this topic. Good luck with your log.
