I have a gateway laptop about a year old that has windows 7 on it. I have been using nod32 for my AV / firewall with no luck deleting the virus or trojan that i have on my system, what happens is when i am using a browser of any type firefox, IE8 , chrome i always get redirected to another website that is not the proper one that i choose to begin with. I have scanned with eset did not find anything, malwarebytes did not find anything. i guess this must be a rootkit, what recommendations can i get to get rid of this pesky issue. Embarassed

From your brief explanation, it looks like you have the google redirect malware. This is not just bound with google but with other search engines too! Try the solutions found here - http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/Web%20Search/thread?tid=6df7e15519290612&hl=en
