Yes your search engine has been hijacked. Normal anti spyware programs will not kill it no matter what they say - I tried!
I ended up using some very powerful but basic kill programs (Hijack this, Killbox etc.) that will get rid of them but these programs are not for the novice and they do not work automagically like the others.
I'd suggest that you contact the midstate PC guy on this thread to help you out or just save your personal files and kill your hard drive and reload Windows etc. Again not for the novice!
