Hi,

I really needs help. Please help me asap. I'm now very very frustrated with my laptop T_T

- When I try to access Google.com, it automatically redirects me to this irritating website: "SOFT.SG" .However, when I access Google.com.sg or other websites with this format "Google.com.xx", it works find. I can use Gmail and other Search Engine normally. I'm only facing problem with "GOOGLE.COM" .

- When I use the google search toolbar, it shows a web page on Firefox that says: "Not Found

The requested URL /search was not found on this server.

Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request. Apache/2.2.17 (Unix) mod_ssl/2.2.17 OpenSSL/0.9.8e-fips-rhel5 mod_auth_passthrough/2.1 mod_bwlimited/1.4 FrontPage/5.0.2.2635 Server at www.google.com Port 80"


- I have tried Google Chrome, Firefox and IE9 and I'm facing the same problem

- I have tried using Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware, Hitman Pro 3.5, CCleaner, kk.exe, Rkill, TDsskiller to find spyware and malware but they all do not work.

- My host file is normal.

Really really needs help.

Thank you all!

Do a malware check with some malware scan programs. You need to scan with all programs because each program detects different malware. Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of the database before doing a scan.

The funny thing is that my website is only redirected to "WWW.SOFT.SG" when I try to access "Google.com". Thus, I cannot even access to google.com. Unlike other cases whereby they are directed to other sites when they click on the search results :S. Btw, when I try to use Google.com.sg to search and install Google Chrome, I cannot access the website of Google Chrome.

It really drives me mad T.T

I doubt that it is due to spyware, malware or trojan as my 2 laptop have the same problem and even my phone has this problem.

Please..... someone help me....
