It's all gone awry since about 1st October 2006. Some kind of hijacker has invaded my system - got past AVG which has been OK up to now. Symptoms are redirecting of Google search results when clicked to other pages masquearding as search engines. Mixture of subjects, different every time. Porn, clothing etc etc. Swept with just about every freebie plus coolshredder, paid up for Regcure (swept up 186 artifacts!), XSoftSpyXE, but still it comes back. Other than this system works fine. Here is the latest log.
