I have tried AdwCleaner and Windows Defender but they all say there is no any trojan or viruse found. Despite this, my Firefox browser gets hijacked and redirects to oneclickads.net ad page when I open new websites. I looked up some google tips related to the issue and I was recommended to remove everything using add/remove programs & clearing "add-ons" from Firefox but I didn't see any! Windows 7, newest version of firefox, Asus laptop...any other recommended software?

Have you tried malwarebytes? Or some other form of anti-malware tool? Sometimes anti-virus' don't pick that sort of stuff up.

- AVG - Avast - Malwarebytes - running msconfig and remove everything that doesn't need to startup - remove unneccesary software - remove all plugins you don't need - use sandboxie in the future - install a decent firewall (for example zonealarm)

I used to use only Firefox too but that has changed. Firefox is not the best anymore. Try Chrome or Torch.

The first page redirects to some "mystartsearch" website and I tried removing it multiple times . However, I failed doing that . Now I am going to give ccleaner and kaspersky a try .

You need only Kaspersky, and if problem persist ask the help in Kaspersky forum. http://forum.kaspersky.com/

No wonder why Malawarebytes is the most recommended free anti malware program tool to date. It can easily removed those potentially unwanted programs in your pc without a problem unlike any other malware removal tools.

Build Avira rescue disk, boot from it and see what you can find. When your windoze is not running, even the smarter viruses cannot hide.

Jjoorriissjjuuhh his guide to always get rid of all shit. Remember to install everything, THEN run in safemode. (boot pc again and smash f12) First Rkill, then ADWcleaner, ccleaner, malwarebytes, super antispyware, combofix. Not removed? Try removing it manually and if that does not work time to re image that bad boy. Also time=money for me, so i always just re image.
