I’m currently suffering from some kind of spyware/malware that’s infecting my Google search results. The top 4 or 5 results are not being served by Google, but being inserted by something called “Hi-results” and pushing the real results further down the list.
The style of Google’s returns is retained, even down to a “cached” result which is no such thing. Adaware, Spybot and Spy Sweeper were all no help in removing it. I’m not sure what to do, but am awaiting some responses from a forum post that I’ve made.

Did you ever get this fixed? It’s affecting me too, but there’s very little information available currently. I’ve read that CWShredder takes care of it. Good luck!

Sadly not. It’s my work PC that’s infected, and it seems to have been so messed up that I may have to get the whole thing re-ghosted (ie. Get the guys in IT to reinstall everything from scratch).
I’ll give CWShredder a go and let you know how I get on.
Adam, I wanted to post that updating AdAware and running that again solved my problem, in case others are researching it.
