Has anyone run into this issue? Totally a pain and I have no clue as to where or how it was contracted. Thank You

I've had redirects for months now and nothing has been able to fix it. Not malware bytes, not tdsskiller, not combofix, etc.

Did you have any luck with the redirects in google? I have the same issue for the last several months with both Google and Yahoo. I contacted McAfee and they indicated it was an explorer defect, Google indicates it's a virus. McAfee indicated I should use Google Chrome which seems to work but not very well. I tried MalWare Bytes and still the problem persists, I can get to where I want to in Goggle by hitting the back button after the search selection.
