My browser(s) -- both IE and Firefox -- won't go to any microsoft websites, or yahoo, or aol. Sometimes, it redirects me to www.searchthenet.com -- I have run search and distroy, symantec, and spyware doctor without any luck. Any help would be appreciated. Since it seems that most people ask for the hijack this log -- here goes --
Thanks very much!

rmignone,
The problem sounds more like you have a virus more than you have spyware. Check for virus and adware

or

Dude, try Opera, I've been using it for two or three years, and the newer versions are WAY better than the older ones, and better than any other browser I've tried. My opinions are sometimes harshly met with criticism by skeptics, so I won't flog it here, you can contact me personally if you want to know anything else about Opera. In any case, it usually works when IE or FFox fail, unless Windows is seriously messed up, of course.
if you are having problems specifically with urls ......... give cwshredder a shot
http://spywareinfo.com/~me
make sure all browsers are closed... also remove all antispyware tools for your pc .. install microsoft antispyware and run a scan after updating it ... (For some reason the microsoft tool seems to do it better :) )
CWShredder is owned and maintained by InterMute since October 19, 2004. It is available from them for free seperately, or integrated into SpySubstract PRO.
The free version is available for download here:
http://intermute.com/spysu
Download ewido, www.ewido.net/en/
Install it, update it
Download CleanUp! http://www.stevengould.org
Install it
Boot to safe mode (no networking)
Run Ewido
Run CleanUp!
Post back if it doesn't solve your problem.
boy this line is no good at all:
O16 - DPF: {CE8267C2-D41A-4A50-A69D-F
also there is a way to redirect the browser without installing software....
do a search on your computer for a file called "hosts" no extension or anything, just plain "hosts".
open that up with notepad and if theres any entries listed, post them here.
rmignone,
Would you post the analyzed log again. I like to see if anything of the items that I asked to be deleted came back.
Also, did you run any of the virus scanners that I posted above? Here they are again
