What is This Possible Threat?
When I use Yahoo Search, I get a message on the bottom of the screen saying "waiting for zfsearch.com".
When I use Google, it gives an IP address of 85.17.138.49....
I just scanned my whole computer with Malwarebytes' Antimalware and nothing was found.
Did a little research and some people are getting redirected to other sites. I'm not yet; and the message is disappearing quicker. Anybody having a similar problem (I'm using Firefox).
Thanks, guys. I uninstalled Firefox and disabled my add-ons (the problem seems to be triggered by them) and re-installed. The problem appears to be fixed; even after I restarted my system.
I'll pick a best answer tomorrow night; I have to go now.

something is definitely on the computer. Did you already read this forum?

Looks like these people have run everything but found nothing either. HiJackThis and Spybot didn't find anything for them.
If you have not done this, try running a scan on your hard drive externally if possible that way no files will be accessed on your computer at the time. I would delete every temp folder (Windows will recreate them). Then run another scan with MalmareBytes. Also use Spybot, maybe CCleaner and some virus scan. I recommend BitDefender's free version that you can install
Good luck with that

Yea you have something going on. Try doing your scans in safe mode. You might also try http://www.superantispyware.com/
Running 2 anti spywares wont hurt anything.
Did a search on zfsearch and came up with this.
