It redirects your google searches to sites with worse trojans. It actually redirects your search to a pretty blue search looking page with the same string in the box that you originally searched for. Then anything you go to has more malware. It happens about one in 30 searches to be sneaky. Attached Image (viewed 95 times):

Thanks Jim, can I assume that if my anti-virus stops it, I do not get re-directed? So far, I have had no problems with Google & I have not tried Yahoo or the Microsoft search engines for a while.

The virus has been known to infect avatars also and change their content. Usually adds a large cigar also though.

Jim - this program was suggested to me by a local server/computer/IP administer as an upgrade to AVG and AVAST. i know nothing about it but wanted to pass along the info. http://www.superantispyware.com/

AVG is not considered protection IMO. superantispyware seems to be a real product from the reading I did in the past 10 minutes. It seems like if it was notable as long as it has been out I would have heard of it at all. I have not. I'm giving it a "it's not a false program". Beware though, there are an array of products that are real that act exactly like the fake ones. You download the free version. You scan your computer. It finds problems (in the real companies cases.. real threats) You hit the "get rid of problem" button of the day. It says to do so you have to purchase the professional version. Yes there are real companies that do this. SpywareDoctor is one of them. A real company that still tries to rope you in to a purchase.
