    78.152.254.74 = RIPE Network Coordination Centre
    195.25.76.250 = RIPE Network Coordination Centre
    213.233.128.1 = RIPE Network Coordination Centre

    RIPE is another regional body...http://www.db.ripe.net/whois

    78.152.. and 213.233.128.1 are vodafone
    195.25.76.250 is a france telecom ip

    If you're confident you got them all then I wouldn't say there are any problems there.

    Only other suggestion I have is to go back and do the hijackthis log again, but get wrapper going first as described in the post and do a rooter scan too.

    Hey just to let you know I have had the exact same problem the last two days and both Malware Anti... and SuperAnti.... found nothing. I'm still looking for a solution but if find one I'll be sure to tell you

    Sorry for the double post but I found a solution, I don't know how it works but it does

    1.) Exit out of all programs
    2.)goto run enter
    C:\WINDOWS\system32
    3.) then scroll to the bottom of the page and find wdmaud.sys just rename it to BAD_wdmaud.sys
    4.) Immediately reboot the system
    5.) Test the results

    A 'browser helper' could do this kind of thing - any toolbars installed? Windows Updates up to date?

    I just did a search on Google there for 'Google links hijacked' and found this - http://forums.techguy.org/web-email/448070-solved-google-links-hijacked.html.

    Suggest you try it and let us know how you get on.

    Anyone else who runs into this, apparently ComboFix has some success identifying and removing the wdmaud file.
