Parallels Plesk Panel uninstall issue

[leghorn]

A friend of mine goes online using Mozilla Firefox. Whenever she tries to open a Google-related page (e.g. www.google.de) the request is redirected to a simple display of Parallels Plesk Panel, saying that the page is not available.
I've been trying to uninstall it through "Add/Remove programs" but couldn't find an entry for that program. Neither did I find any file or folder on her computer which might indicate the presence of that tool.

Has anybody else experience with PPP? And maybe any suggestion how to get rid of it?

Thanks in advance...

That's a server administration program and probably not on her computer. It sounds like she is being redirected to the on-line server itself for some reason. I've seen a similar situation when a server is having problems and you get a Apache server error page. I don't know if the problem would with her ISP or with some problem Google is having. If she could temporarily try a different browser, that might show if it's some setting in FF that's causing it.

But I'm just guessing. Others here may have a better explanation.

The problem also occurs in IE...

It sounds like her computer has been hijacked to redirect to some sinister site.
However, the sinister site is now gone, and loads an empty Plesk default page from the server.

I assure you, Plesk is costly, IP-married, and NOT on her computer.

I ran Hijack This and think it helped...now it's wait and see.
