What is this sh*te? Instead of the standard 404 page, I get this, proporting to be some kind of search engine. I've got Adaware installed, AVG Anti-Virus and Zone Alarm, so how did it get there and how can I get rid of it?

I've got this too. It varies between Kanoodle and a few others. I've sinced moved over to using Mozilla permenantly with only using IE for the odd site that doesn't work in Mozilla.

It is some sort of spy/ad ware.

Do a scan with Hijack This and post the log here.

Kazaa installs it as part of the bundled spyware. Adaware can remove it.

Of course, only applicable for Windows XP Service Pack 2

I've tried countless Ad/Spyware removers and they don't find anything - one did but I'm not paying £30+ to get it removed.

I don't think Kazaa did install this on mine. I've had Kazaa for a long time before and this problem has only just appeared within the past few months.
