....my computer appears to be infected.

When I do a google search, all of the search results get replaced with links to spam sites, *including* the googlecache links and "more from this page" links.

This is *amazingly* disorienting for someone who has adapted to using Google as prosthetic memory.

I did all the standard virus-and-malware killing stuff, and it keeps coming back, and since my searching is messed up (yay dogpile?) it's annoying to research it. I'm probably going to have to spend tomorrow backing stuff up and reformatting the harddrive.

oh yay.
