snoggedI have some sort of hijacker/virus on my computer.
As of right now, it's only impacting my ability to conduct searches on Google and Yahoo. I can type in a URL with no problem, but anytime I click on a link it re-routes me to a different site.
My anti-virus program (I use Avast-the Free Version) is not getting rid of it.
Do any of you know a good program I good try? (Preferably a free one?)

The best part about this, is that you don't lose any files. So if you downloaded music or wrote a paper recently, it should be okay.
