is a real pain. It changes google search results when doing a search
and only shows affiliate and advertisement links instead of real search
results. It is installed via a Trojan horse and usually
executes itself once a user opens a browser. There are several
mutations of the Google redirect virus out there. Some mutations will
not only change search results, they will also display pop-up ads which
is really annoying. Users who are experiencing this type of problems
do not need to worry because they can easily fix Google redirect virus
and also keep their systems away from future attacks by it.
The first step to fix
Google redirect virus is to open the “System32” folder found in the
Windows folder located at the local drive or the drive C. In the
folder, the users are required to find the “regedit.exe” file and right
click on it. The next step is to rename "regedit.exe" to something you
can remember easily. Now, disable it. The reason for this is that this is the place
where the Google redirect virus executes from.The next step is to
download the anti-malware software and run it in their system. It is important
that you install the best type of anti-malware software so that you can
get rid of all types of infections that the system has. When it comes to downloading them
from internet sites, you should ensure that you have selected sites
that are reputable and secure. It
is hard to believe, but the number if scam sites offering anti malware
which will infect your PC with even more malicious code, viruses and
trojans is growing every day. Once you have donwloaded a
reputable anti malware software make sure to scan ALL files and folders
on your harddrive to make sure all viruses and othe rmalicious code
gets found.
You should then head back to the “System32” folder and change the name
of the folder back to the original (regedit). The next step is to open the registry
editor window. If you don't know how to do this: go to the start menu,
click on run and type in "regedit". On this window, you will find
“HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE” on which you should select software. Ok, you are almost there.... now select
"Microsoft", "Windows" and then "Current Version" and finally "run"
On the right hand window that appears you should select the executable
file “RegSVR32=%system%msmsgs.exe” and delete it by right clicking on
it and selecting delete.
Ensure that the executable file is stated as mentioned above and avoid
as much as possible to delete any other file as they may end up getting
rid of important registry files, forcing you to re-install the
operating system. To complete the process you are
required to restart the computer.
If you did everything correctly,
should have been removed from your system. Try it! Go to Google and search for
something. You should now get real search results
and not fake affiliate links or ads. I highly recommend updating your anti-virus
software to make sure you don't get re-infected.
