I'm getting different internet search results on one of my 3 computers.?

I did an internet search both on Yahoo and Google on 3 of the computers at the same time. On one of the computers, the top search results always looks "spammy" leading to info.com or findstuff.com, ringtone downloads, monstermarket.com, or "start your own business" type sites. I cleaned up the infected computer with Spyware Doctor and Ad-aware, nothing helped. Any ideas out there?

Well, obviously that PC had spyware if you "cleaned it up."



But if you're still getting popups and other spyware and malware artifacts, then you still have an infected computer. I'd update ad-aware and give it another go. If it finds stuff, reboot and rinse and repeat until clean. If it cannot clean the files, I'd try trendmicro.com--they have a free scan tool that's not too shabby.



Sorry that I'm not able to suggest anything more than the obvious, but if you're still getting spyware garbage on the screen, then you still have spyware on the PC.



Sorry I don't have more. :/
