Everytime I click on something I have searched it redirects me to a completely different page that usually has nothing to do with what I clicked on. How can that stop?

Also, how do I get rid of Getsavin and the constant popups? My pop up blocker is on.

Thank you.

Hello craymond14, sometimes a problem with Firefox may be a result of malware installed on your computer, that you may not be aware of.

You can try these free programs to scan for malware, which work with your existing antivirus software:

Microsoft Security Essentials is a good permanent antivirus for Windows 7/Vista/XP if you don't already have one.

Further information can be found in the Troubleshoot Firefox issues caused by malware article.

Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!


thank you
