mom@shiloh Posted November 15, 2011 Share Posted November 15, 2011 My computer is sabotaging me today! Every time I try to search for something I get redirected to an advertising site. I have no idea why. Please help me! :confused: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Margo out of lurking Posted November 15, 2011 Share Posted November 15, 2011 Are you on Firefox? There is some horrid little "google redirect" that can affect Firefox users. It affected me for months, and what I could find to get rid of it seemed too complicated. Running my anti-vir and anti-mal had not fixed it . . . . UNTIL this week. Finally it's fixed, and I believe that my FREE anti-malware got it, http://www.iobit.com/malware-fighter.html I've run this for many months in conjunction with whatever my Windows firewall is, and MalwareBytes, with no conflict. (And I use Avira as my anti-virus.) HTH. It was VERY frustrating, and occasionally that redirect would send me somewhere that would try to attack my computer. :glare: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
