How can I find out if I have Hijackers on my computer?

Question

Everytime I search it gets sent somewhere other than the engine I'm using. I type in an address, it's redirected else where.

Answer 1

Download hijackthis from link #1.  Create the log and paste your log on the site at link #2.

The gentleman that operates this site will advise you of what needs to be altered and/or removed in order to get rid of this malware.

You should also download, install, update, immunize, and then run a full scan with Spybot Search & Destroy version 1.6.  Run teatimer and that should help prevent future hijackings.

Answer 2

Download and install hijackthis:http://www.download.com/Trend-Micro-Hija...

(if you use xp)>> go to:

>Start menu

>Control panel

>System

>Remote Tab

Uncheck  Remote Assistance & Remote Desktop.

>Apply

>Ok

It will protect you from Remote administration (hacking).
