Being Redirected, Please Help

C

Cory

For the past few days, I've been having problems with
accessing web pages that I often view.

I will type the address into my address bar, hit enter,
and then be redirected to a search page.

an example of this would be:

http://www.kjzz.org

will be redirected to

http://ehttp.cc/?http://www.kjzz.org

If I re-enter the proper address three or four times, it
will eventually bypass this redirect and take me to the
actual page that I'm trying to view.

If anyone knows how I might solve this problem, please
reply to jingomcharrison AT hotmail DOT com


Thank you.

Cory,

First, scan the system for parasites and remove them. SpyBot S&D searches
your harddisk for Spyware and Adware

&

Adaware (similar)
http://www.lavasoftusa.com/software/adaware/
(Remember to perform a Webupdate to have the latest definitions installed)

This will remove malware from the PC. Next, reset the Search Engine. Click
the Search button in the toolbar > Customize > AutoSearch Settings > Select
a provider from the list.
Open Internet Explorer > Tools > Options > Programs > "Reset Web Settings"

Download the fix - Reset Search:
