Infection date and initial symptoms:
Sometime within the last week. I don't recall the exact date. When I try to search using my omnibox (in Chrome), this flashes across it http://www.searchinterneat-a.akamai...aUA5JEBNBNARaCEtXUUEeIlVRBB8fHGdGM0xUFUo5VFc= and it auto. redirects me to Yahoo Search.
Current issues and symptoms:

http://searchinterneata.akamaihd.ne...TRxNBNARaAktXUUEeIlVfAh8fHGZGIUtbCXQeU1BoLlZP and it auto. redirects me to Yahoo Search. I'm also unable to go to my home page of google.com, b/c this interferes and redirects me to Yahoo Search.
Steps taken in order to remove the infection:
I removed that site from Chrome (Home page), I deleted it as a search engine option in chrome. I uninstalled chrome. reinstalled chrome. Used Rkill, ADW, and MalwareBytes which all came back clean.
What scan logs have you uploaded to this post?:
I started out with a problem from the following:

I see where some your help for similar problems. However, there seems to be a message with some of the downloads that states something like, "these were made specifically for this particular machine... using it could harm your machine..." Otherwise, I would have just grabbed those and tried them, before bugging you with the same (similar?) issue you've already solved for someone else.
Please, help... I'm at a loss.
