Google cannot be opened because the Host file is modified with the latest virus. You are prompted to use Baidu for search.

Gseeker message:

In the near future, some users may log on to google.cn/.comand return to China at the prompt: “google. please use a hundred-degree search engine ". This is obviously not normal because Google has not withdrawn from China. The reason why the user will see this jump page is that the system files on the user's computer have been maliciously tampered with by viruses. If you do, follow these steps to repair the system file and clear the virus:

Error Message

1) Open Notepad (START-> All Programs-> attachments-> Notepad)

2) choose File> open from the menu.

3) in the input box after "file name", enter % windir % \ system32 \ drivers \ etc \ hosts, and click "open" or press Enter.

4) Find the line containing "google" in the file and delete it.

For example, for most infected users, the file should contain the following four lines:

60.190.203.135 www.google.com

60.190.203.135 google.com

60.190.203.135 www.google.cn

60.190.203.135 google.cn

(Please do not try to access the above IP address and detect malicious code containing the ANI vulnerability)

5) Select File> save from the menu and close notepad.

In this way, you can use google.cn/.com again. I don't know who made the virus, but it is clear that the maker doesn't like Google ).
