Full Version: Google Redirect Using Spoofed Page.

I have been infected with an interesting redirect:
Seems like google will be redirected to another result other that the real one, either by a site called "copy-book.com" or through IP 85.255.115.45 / 85.255.112.110 ( these keep showing up in my registry under HKLM/System/ControlSet/Services/TcpIp/Parameters/...DhcpNameServer = 85.255.115.45 - deleting them just makes them respawn. )
I thought I was getting redirected FROM google, through "copy-book.com" to the random useless sites I would end up at. I use www.google.ca - so I thought I woud check the source for that page and lo and behold <script src="http://copy-book.com/copybook.js"></script> and more, redirecting me to this junk/spam/spoofed results.
Somehow I am not accessing google when I type in the URL. If this one thing could be resolved the problem may be fixed!
Included are my HijackThis Logs. ( Note: the spoofed IP is no longer present- it is present in backed-up HJT logs, but no longer, but I still get redirected!)
I have tried fixwareout, Decard Security Scanner and Combofix, no luck. That combonation worked on my other (VISTA) pc, but not on this (XP) pc. I really need Google for work, so any ideas are appreciated!

Welcome to SAF, Drew.

Can you locate HijackThis.exe and rename it to Hcheck.exe. Some infections can hide themselves from HijackThis.exe.

The IP address shows it's a Wareout infection, so download Fixwareout to your desktop.

* Run Fixwareout.
* Click Next,
* then Install,
* make sure Run fixit is checked
* and click Finish.
* The fix will begin; follow the prompts.
* You will be asked to reboot your computer; please do so.
* Your system may take longer than usual to load; this is normal.

When you run fixwareout, just follow the prompts, you will need to restart when prompted.

After rebooting (restart) back into normal boot mode, make sure you have all web browsers closed.

* Go into Control Panel -->Network Connections.
* Right click on your connection
* and click Properties.
* On the Properties page, highlight Internet Protocol(TCP/IP)
* Click Properties. This will bring up another page.
* Select Obtain DNS Server Automatically.
* Click the ok button. The page will close.
* Press ok on the page in front of you.
* Restart the computer.
* Reconnect to the Internet using Internet Explorer.
* Now come back here and attach the log from fixwareout. It is located at c:\fixwareout\report.txt
