Why Does Google Keep Redirecting?


this is the closest thing I could find to what exactly is going on with my PC. I have all these symptoms but can not find the TDSSserv.sys, it talks about. I open all menus showed all hidden devices. I have also downloaded a register cleaner that keeps scanning and finding the same errors and only repairs one and ignores the others every time I’ve run a full scan with it. I have also downloaded a malware program that I run a complete scan now at least once a day and it finds nothing. I have mcafee thru my ISP and the scans find nothing as well. Please help!
