Domainsa or 404bucks redirect virus whenever WF is down!
Hi, ever since yesterday evening around 5pm GMT, none of my browsers were able to access a single page from Warrior forum. Firefox would display a message saying something was wrong with my cookies and offered me a 'Retry' button. But everytime I clicked on it, it would redirect me to an affiliate link from
"404bucks.com or Free Credit Report - Online Search Resource[ENTER NAME OF DESIRED URL]."
This happens on 2 other occassions:
1). Whenever I type a url that doesn't exist, it redirects.
2). Whenever I type the words 404bucks into my google search or anywhere else on my browser (e.g. F3 search box)
I performed a system restore to 3 days back, but it didn't resolve the issue.
What's worse is that none of my virus programs are picking up any malware.
And there are only about 2 threads on the internet regarding a 404bucks redirect virus, none of which offer a solution.
None of my other browsers would even let me access WF. They would report an error that there are too many redirects, so it will not allow me to access WF.
I'm using Vista x64 and my system was clean before this virus/malware 404 hijack took over.
What's going on?
How can I resolve this?
