This seems to have happened out of the blue.

For the past few weeks, I've had a problem with IE. When I go to some sites, it doesn't matter which because it happens at random, the page will load but after a second or two the browser will go to http://apps.webservicehost.com and tell me the page can't be found! Well BULLSHIT, I just visited the page you fucktard piece of shit browser!

I have no clue what could have caused it ~.~

Right now I can't browse Slashdot because of this problem. I backtrack to the page and it keeps forwarding me to the webservicehost baloney.

Go into regedit and search for that webpage. Chances are, some piece of spyware took over your Search function or something.

Download Spybot Search & Destroy, too, just in case.

I ran the coolweb shredder, and it appears that I didn't have the trojan.

edit: Checked out hijackthis and compared the results to what was on the site. Don't see any of the malicious stuff.
