My browse has been hijacked!

General Fear

Has anyone in this forum experienced this problem?

It does not matter if I use Microsoft Internet Explorer or Foxfire. It
does not matter if I use Google or Yahoo.com. If I Google something.
And I click on the link. My browser is redirected to a web page that I
have no interest in.

It seems to me that I have picked up a computer virus that is messing
with my browser.

If you had this problem, how did you fix it?

Download and install Malwarebytes and SpyBot S&D..

www.malwarebytes.org and
www.safer-networking.org/en/home/index.html

Run SpyBot first as it removes temporary Internet files which can slow the
scan to a crawl..

1. See if you can download/run the MSRT manually:

2. Run this online scan (in safe mode w/networking, if need be):

3. Run a /thorough/ check for hijackware, including posting the requested
logs in an appropriate forum.

If the procedures look too complex - and there is no shame in admitting this
isn't your cup of tea - take the machine to a local, reputable and
independent (i.e., not BigBoxStoreUSA) computer repair shop.
