    Internet Explorer Home Page - Add or Change

    Were you able to figure out how to run both cleaning tools?

    Or do you need step-by-step instructions?

    pyro90,

    In the capture you provided, the address shown is:
    https://www.google.com.au/?gws_rd=cr&ei=RcNJUoPrGYfFkA

    That takes the IE10 browser to aGoogle Australia page, offering a Sign up, and also an install of Google Chrome.

    Anyone with IE10 is welcome to try it. That is not a malware page, or a virus redirection page.

    Is www.google.com your home page?



    Also, please press on with Downloading MiniToolBox
    Save to the Desktop. <<--
    Double-click the downloaded file to run it.




    When the MiniToolBox console opens, please check the following boxes:
    • Flush DNS
    • Report IE Proxy Settings
    • Report FF Proxy Settings (Only if you use FireFox)
    • List content of Hosts
    • List IP Configuration
    • List Winsock Entries
    Click: Go

    Please post the Result.txt in your reply.
    (A copy of Result.txt is found on the Desktop.)


    Edit: Some extra info...
    Why Do You Have ?gws_rd=cr Added To Your Google URL?

    Maybe Google is playing with us.

    Take a look at the Edit on my last post.



    Not to worry!

    This issue is not a malware problem!!!!

    Using your link in your question it opened the normal site,
    https://www.google.com/
    Which the only difference is the https is added,
    Are you logged into Google services ?
    Because I'm not,
    Cheers.
