He saw it but it will take the Mac a while to bring it up, he always has kind of a delay and it isn't the pond between us.:D

Those stupid redirect viruses were some of the most troublesome I've had to deal with. They kept coming back. I downloaded hitman pro, as well as combo fix. I turned off restore points before running the programs because somebody told me some crap could hide in there. Afterwards, I recreated a restore point right after the cleaning. Another program I've heard good things about is TDSS killer. A redirect virus is basically a TDSS virus that is very good at hiding.

Can you tell me more about TDSS killer? Frankly, I'm afraid to run Combofix without somebody holding my hand. :eek:

TDSS killer is a kaspersky labs product, which is supposed to be good anti virus stuff. I downloaded a free trial version and ran the exe file. It does a pretty quick scan since it's geared to looking specifically for this type of bug which always hides in the same place in windows system files. Even after I got malware bytes running, it was never too successful with this type of virus. I use symantec software for basic AV. It would alert me that the virus was there, but was poor at removing it.
