Google Search Redirect Virus Removal - How To Get Rid Of This Virus For Good
The typical signs that your PC has this infection include your search engines redirecting to fake / unrelated websites, as well as your system continually showing popups & other ads.
Despite the virus continually installing itself in a very simple way - it's continually causing a large number of problems that will prevent it from being removed correctly from your system.
If you're having problems removing this virus from your system, you need to be able to get rid of it in the most effective way possible - a process that can be done by using the tutorial on this page.
This virus is nothing more than a simple Trojan Horse infection which basically changes a few files that your computer uses to "direct" itself online.
Whenever you browse the Internet on your PC, it's continually being taken to various different websites & redirects online.
Most of the time you don't see any of these redirects, but when you have the redirect infection on your system, the virus will basically inject its own links into the redirections - causing your computer to take you to fake websites.
Most people see this virus when they browse Google because all the major search engines on your system will redirect you through the search engine's home domain before taking you to the website you wanted.
Even though the redirect virus is continually installing itself onto 100's of computers around the World, it remains one of the most difficult viruses to remove from your PC.
The good news is that there are various ways to get rid of this infection from your system - which basically involve using more specific applications other than an "antivirus" tool.
By the way, anti-virus programs will not get rid of this virus because it will just change a few files on your system, and will therefore remain undetectable.
We've found that the best way to get rid of this virus is to use two pieces of software, which will basically scan through the appropriate parts of your system and then get rid of any of the parts of the redirect virus that's on there.
We recommend using a program called "Hitman Pro" (which removes Trojan Horse infections from your PC), followed by using a piece of software called "TDSS Killer" (which has been specifically designed to get rid of a particular type of "rootkit" virus on your PC).
You can get both of these tools from the Internet - I would recommend downloading them and then letting them remove all the infections that they find on your PC.
If this does not work, we have found that a program called "FixRedirectVirus" also works exceptionally well to get rid of the Google Redirect Virus in the most effective way.
