    Browser Hijacker help please

    Recently, everytime I click a link from a Google search it will redirect me to a random site. It also prevents anti spyware programs from getting updates.

    The IP of the redirect is either 67.29.139.253 or 216.133.243.28 both have been used.

    I have ran several anti spyware programs but the proble still persists.

    Can someone please give me some help on what to do to try and get rid of this hijacker.

    I can provide a hijackThis log if needed.
