Hey, I recently got a virus, I have noticed that I run into that QFxZ-CAA only when I search anything related to getting rid of the virus: such as: Hijack this log analyzer, anything with the word “virus” in it, etc… I am afraid I may have picked up a keylogger as well… The virus not only did that to my Chrome, but also disabled my active desktop picture, safe mode, and the task manager.

tried system restore with mine – did not work – I still have no Google. I got the Malware – cost me $49 and I agree it is a coincidence that they are the ONLY company who knows the answer to this problem – they probably sent it in the first place, IMHO. Wish me luck – nothing seems to help – anyone have a solution, please advise!! Thanks!

Yeah, bummer, searches don’t work from the address bar anymore, so until I have more time to look into, I’m using Firefox. I do prefer Chrome.
