BHO deleted by accident

[Josh]

I accidentally deleted a bho using HijackThis, and I'm having all
kinds of problems using search engines such as google.

It happened too long ago for System Restore to fix it.

How can I fix this.

 

[H Leboeuf]

It may be a HOSTS file problem that the malware created.
Look for a file named HOSTS (no extension, could be hidden) rename it
OLDHOSTS.

Or

Could it be an other problem?

Unable to use any major Search Engines?
