Using XP Pro. When I click on Google Images I'm directed to
www.bestwindowsdownloads.com, regardless of the browser - IE, Firefox,
Opera, and Netscape. I've run two adware programs, Hijack This, CWShredder,
and two virus scans, but nothing comes up.

What can I do to rid my machine of this?

Check your "hosts" file (no suffix).

Ah, Information. A property, too valuable these days, to give it away,
just so, at no cost.
