V9 REDIRECT VIRUS

S
I am very concerned by something called the V9 REDIRECT VIRUS.  This 'bug' is always there -- during my searches for anything and everything.
 
As one might expect, a search for this [V9 REDIRECT VIRUS] piece of junk returns several dozen eager 'responses' offering the permanent and certain "solution".
 
Has any one on here discovered a "genuine" 'permanent and certain' solution?
 
Please respond -- anyone who can shed light and heat on this very bothersome piece of nonsense.
 
I am not certain where or whether this entry will end up but I thought it was worth the effort.
 
Thanks to any one who reads this missive.

Hello STASHMO ,
WELCOME to the community Forum!
 
My advise would be to issue a Support Ticket HERE
Because I see that this a very nasty Redirect virus and the Support team can help you with this! Because V9 Redirect Virus is a malicious browser hijacker which infects the system while you are browsing insecure websites or when you download spam email ... 
 
 
 
GoodLuck!
