Hating the environment since 1994
    • Ever sicne I have downloaded version 1.46, I am unable to update my program always getting error messages. Since this problem has occurred I have gotten a problem where I am redirected when doing web searches to Tazinga.com and a host of other sites.

    I have looked up fixes online to no avail and even tried changing my proxy server and port and have gotten up to 85% downloaded before inevitably an error message comes up.

    If I can get my Malwarebytes to update, I'm pretty sure the Tazinga re-directing will stop.

    Any ideas?

    could be the infection is blocking malwarebytes from updating

    i had an issue before where an infection kept me from installing malwarebytes on the computer all together

    try this program SUPERAntiSpyware.com | Remove Malware | Remove Spyware - AntiMalware, AntiSpyware, AntiAdware!

    Downloaded this program and it found one Trojan horse but am still having the same problems with getting re-directed to other sites.

    you're fucked.

    you may have to reformat your hard drive.

    i'm not an expert by any means, so don't take me as gospel.

    my home computer had the redirect issue (from any search engine i tried).
    never could fix it, and then one day, my hard drive "couldn't be found"

    one of our computers at work had this issue.
    our IT worked it for 2 days, and then finally reformatted the drive.

    You downloaded version 1.46?

    Thump.... there is no 1.46. You downloaded a groundhog!

    Wasn't able to get online in Safe Mode. Am I doing something wrong?

    It usually gives you 3 options: Safe Mode with Command Line, Safe Mode, and Safe Mode with Networking. Choose the last and it should work. As mentioned above, backing up data to an external (risky since the virus could be in one of the transferred files) and/or reformatting is the best option. The AV these days doesn't usually get everything and you could get reinfected pretty easily. Reinstalling Windows can be time consuming and annoying but trying to remove a trojan or malware makes it look like a walk through Willy Wonka's chocolate factory. Also, some service providers provide anti virus software for free. Check their website.
