HI,
I am usually helping people out with problems but this time i have a problem. o.k any time a user in my company go to google.ca or google.com its redirected to some other page. I also deleted the cookies and empty out the temp interent files. from my resarech i found it was something called the SQuire program or sort of bug which gets installed on your computer and redirects your page. i installed AD ware to remove it. it found nothing. I also did the latest update from microsoft still nothing. from the website they told me to go and delete the enteries of squire from the registry still the same. from the only option it looks like is to reimage the machine but would like to solve it rather. so open to new advice

There are worms/trojans going around that in addition to other things, create entries
in the hosts file to cause this behavior. You may want to do trojan/virus scan. ---
