I DON'T click on ads, never respond to spam(don't download graphics). I'm not a moron. Seriously. What burns my ass is that I have treated this box as a 'clean room', and the damn thing has a wicked virus on it. All search results regardless of search engine or browser end up getting redirected. I have tried, avast, Maleware bytes, Adaware, AVG, a crap load of manual fixes.....nothing.
There was an exploit running around a year or so ago that changed your DNS settings.

Check control panel/Network Connections/The connection profile you are connected with, assume Wireless open it and hit properties, in the list scroll down to Internet Protocal (TCP/IP), select and hit Properties, under the General tab the default is "Obtain DNS server automatically", if "Use the following DNS server address" is selected then what is the IP address entered there?
