Dr. Fong Posted May 15, 2009 Share Posted May 15, 2009 Whenever I use google or any other search engine I'm just taken to a page that sort of looks like google sponsored links, but has nothing to do with what I searched. On the bottom it says "transferring data to feed.peakclick.com" Both my anti-virus and ad-aware aren't detecting anything. Anyone know what's going on?

I even doubt Sage's friend could lick it but you could ask. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
angrygnome Posted May 15, 2009 Share Posted May 15, 2009 I think you have this or some variation of it. http://www.f-secure.com/sw-desc/toolbar_w32_mostofate.shtml These browser takeover crap are really hard to pinpoint and usually comes in the form of a toolbar add-on or something. If the link I sent you is the one you have you could probably get rid of it by deleting the registry keys associated with it. Or two free programs I recommend to everyone that are free are Lavasoft's Ad-Aware free version and Spybot search and destroy. This seems more like spyware and those are a solid place to start.
