Started with redirection of search results in IE. Now I have all of the Antispyware Soft problems in addition.
I followed the Antispyware Soft removal tutorial, but I was not able to download and run the programs required including Malwarebytes. Most programs can be installed, but they won't run. It appears that they are being blocked.
Here are my logs which I had to run in Safe Mode. Not sure if this will work.
