I'm not quite sure of exactly when I got this malware/virus, and I'm not sure if it has an exact name since none of my malware removal tools seem to have picked it up, but I know I must have gotten it anywhere between 2 weeks and 3 days ago...

This fix was created for this user for use on that particular machine.

Running it on another one may cause damage and render the system unstable.

Download attached fixlist.txt file and save it to the Desktop:

Both files, FRST and fixlist.txt have to be in the same location or the fix will not work!

  • Right-click on
    FRST.gif
    icon and select
    RunAsAdmin.jpg
    Run as Administrator to start the tool.
    (XP users click run after receipt of Windows Security Warning - Open File).
  • Press the Fix button just once and wait.
  • If for some reason the tool needs a restart, please make sure you let the system restart normally. After that let the tool complete its run.
  • When finishes FRST will generate a log on the Desktop, called Fixlog.txt.

Please attach it to your reply.

Your solution didn't work. If I am correct, all you did was clear non-core browser files in your solution. The virus is still somewhere on my computer, and my proof is that I went to download a file that I have been attempting to obtain for the past week only to be redirected again. I'm still using Chrome as my main browser, but still have the others installed.
 
Well, I reinstalled my old extensions after it was wiped, but last I knew, none of them shouldn't be trusted... I can private message you the links to them if need be.
