when i search in google and then click on the search result it sometimes takes me to various shopping sites etc. Also my laptop blue screen very frequently with the error message something similar too "IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL"

i have Ccleaner, Malwarebytes Anti Malware, Pc Health Check and PC Guard (Virgin Media anti-virus and anti-spywre)

all of these return no errors. There are no suspicious programs that could be causing this.

anyone have any advice apart from format the fucker? :-(
 
the BSoD will be a shitty driver so update any and all that you can

the family pc had the same problem with google and i dont think they managed to fix it until they reformatted. do you have any of those silly extra toolbars installed in your browser?

no i keep it all clean have nothing stupid on like toolbars or anything, use Ccleaner everytime im on, anti-virus and anti-spyware every week. defrag all the time.
 
As above, there'll be an IRQ clash on your hardware or summat. You can check it in System Devices I think.

There's another thread with a smiliar Google hijacker virus, sounds like a bastard.

try spybot and check what your search engine in browser is set to as I've seen 1 that looks like google and takes you to shit shopping sites

and blue screen may be your drivers, there is a program to find out what that error exactly is (search google) but it involes log files

check your startup with a startup manager, I downloaded some dodgy software ;o) and this stupid google site was added bloody every where(in chrome, firefox etc) and 30 or so entries in startup (like a home made virus)

check your plugins/addsons as it installs one of them for some game thing, trying to think of name but naaa & match is approaching
 
Had the same problem with a laptop I fixed last week, Microsoft Security Essentials removed the cause.

I've picked up the same virus mate. It just kicked in last week when some fucker off here provided a link to watch the Man Utd. game with.
 
Did anyone properly manage to fix this?

I thought I had by using TDSS killer but it hasn't worked.

Plus I'm still getting that blue crash screen now and then.
