short answer: tdsskiller You've tried Malwarebytes, and your antivirus and it says you're clean, but it's obvious you're not, as every time you try to use windows update or try to go to a Microsoft site, you get redirected to another search engine.

Another reason to use the Private Browsing mode
I'm sure there's a good reason (ahem, shopping? really?) to use the Private browsing mode in Firefox and IE (note: you're not completely private in these modes. Proxies and other man-in-the-middle snooping are still possible) ... but if you use a shared/public/library computer, it might be worth it to go "Private" while checking your mail or going on facebook. When you return from "Private", it forgets all of your logged in status while in Private mode, so it's less likely that the next someone can hit (back) and see you still logged in. Just don't start bookmarking while in private mode...
Background images not showing up in IE or Firefox
If you turn on High Contrast Mode in Windows, it will disable loading background images in both IE and Firefox. You won't be able to see ANY background images, either CSS or <body> tagged. This is incredibly difficult to troubleshoot if you don't know about it. It's not a virus, it's not a BHO (Browser Helper Object), it's simply just a "feature" of the Accessibility option.

Two Firefox ideas
Here are two ideas for Firefox. They might be mutually exclusive.
Well, if anyone reads this and could point me toward the right place, that'd be oh so cool. Thanks!
- Large tab. I don't exactly know the whys and wherefores about this, but it'd be, essentially, two levels of tabs. The idea is one of the following:
- The current tab above or below the other tabs, with some sort of gap at the place where the tab would be in the other tab arrangement
- The current tab is blank or small
- The current tab shows next to Help in the menu (for widescreen, this wouldn't be so bad
- The current tab is in the status bar.
- The current tab above or below the other tabs, with some sort of gap at the place where the tab would be in the other tab arrangement
- Additional buttons in the current tab. Especially, StumbleUpon Stumble, Thumbs up, and Thumbs down in the tab, not in the toolbar.
Well, if anyone reads this and could point me toward the right place, that'd be oh so cool. Thanks!
