pF.TK is on a distinguished road
I ran into this as well on my Bro-In-Laws machine, same issue with spam redirects etc etc. I used a USB stick and installed Spybot S&D did a scan and disabled anything I did not recognize on boot (this is done in the advanced section), I then installed Avast and had it do a boot time scan, it found a couple of trojans and one other I forgot what it was.
Most of it is clean now, but I just got a call last night from him that its making all th eusers change PW's, not sure if its the same infection or they found another web site :/...
