Google Redirect:: Yup, me too.

So I’m in the same boat as a few other people. avast! keeps pulling up the “Malicious URL Blocked” notice with it constantly blocking C:\WINDOWS\system32\midimap32.exe

It only blocked it at first, but now it’s actively redirecting the Google searches.

can you post one more log

Essexboy is notified an will check the logs when he arrive, usually around 08:00pm - 11:59pm uk time…

Sorry about that, here we go.
