Google keeps redirecting search links?

Question

Recently my computer had to be sent to a repair shop because of the trojan virtumonde which nearly destroyed my computer. Upon getting it back, it was super fast. It is still fast, but when I do a search on google or yahoo, I sometimes get redirected to random pages, some of them even saying search not found.

The repair guy installed nod32, and two days ago it found 26 threats, but they were all taken care of (which is what it said). This problem started AFTER, but whenever I scan with Nod32 it doesn't find anything.

I am not allowed to download anymore malware and spyware and whatever, because the repair guy said that those caused other problems on my computer (I had Spybot, Adaware, AVG 8.5). So please don't reccomend me to download that stuff.

I appreciate your help :)

A new breed of trojans hijacks computers and re-directs search results away from Google, Yahoo and MSN to rogue websites where more trouble awaits. You need to update your antivirus and run a full scan to remove the infection. Note that these new trojans may have already disabled your existing antivirus, so if all else fails I suggest that you run a SpyNoMore scan from the link below:

He only recommended you don't install all those again because they are all the same type of product. You rendered the computer useless with million different protections.

In any case, please use MalwareBytes... it WILL work.
