When I type something into search box, I get my search results page; when I click on the result I get sent to another search page. Only way I can open the website is to highlight it at the bottom of the search response and then right click "open link".

Do a malware check with some malware scanning programs.
You need to scan with all programs because each program detects different malware.
Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of their databases before doing a scan.
