Google HiJack
Client has Windows 7 home edition. She is using IE8 with google.com set as her home page. When she googles anything it produces the results. Then within 5 seconds the following information is displayed on a new window:
The requested URL /-7890*sfxd*0*sfxd*0 was not found on this server. That’s all we know.
Her favorites work, She can type in a URL and go to it. Only google searches are affected. I have run Ccleaner, Malwarebytes, still has the problem.
I have used the earliest restore point available. When it comes back up she cannot access the internet. The restore point is about 6 weeks ago, so I will presume that she has had problems for a while.
Any ideas?

The computer it's trying to contact probably got taken offline...that would be my guess.

Do you have any idea what the error message means? I can't find anything via a google search on another computer.
