Starting this morning on my WindowsXP SP3 box, Google searches are getting randomly hijacked to some random page or pages. The behavior occurs in Chrome (my primary browser) and Firefox. IE just hangs.
AVG has turned up nothing so far. I tried system restore, but it doesn't display any restore points and it won't let me select an older month (???). The following is my HijackThis log. Any help would be really, really appreciated.
