So, I got this qooqlle search bar and I tried removing it in the registry and a couple of days after I get it again. What is this qooqlle thing it's driving to the brink of insanity trying to remove it.
I tried spybot search and destroy installed it and tried running it however it does not want to open. I also installed Malwarebytes anti-malware and when I run it the windows 7 dialog of "Do you want to run it" opens up and I say yes and it won't run.
This Qooqlle Annoyance

Qooqlle is a very resilient virus. It prevents you from deleting it by disabling your ability to open any software that could remove it.
Run your computer in Safe-Mode (no networking) and try to run MalWareBytes to remove it.

ComboFix is another awesome program that might help to remove it. Do what reddog said and run that as well.

or save yourself the headache and backup what you want followed by a reformat, virus removal programs are absolute trash and will not remove any half decent trojan. be more careful not to download a virus next time.

If you're running firefox just back up the profile with mozbackup and reinstall firefox. I had several google redirect viruses pop up on Win 7. If you know how to REMOVE a virus manually... you never have to reformat your installation. I've been using Windows XP since it came out and now 7 and have never used virus protection lol. Nothing of mine has gotten toyed with by unscrupulous individuals. Sure I don't do my online banking on my Windows box, but I play GW and log into steam on it, lol.
The only time a virus f's you over is when it gets into the MFT.

Pick up the Anti-Malware Toolkit (link in my sig) and follow the directions in the PC Cleanup guide.
Do not, under any circumstances use ComboFix; it's got a habit of hosing system32, Program Files and other critical directories.
