Google links redirect to Google homepage, not the link itself!

Not all the time, but much of the time, I search for something, get my google results, and then click on one of the links, only to be taken back to the google homepage. The back button is disabled. So I search again, try again, and again I'm redirected to the google homepage. This time the back button works, but only to take me back to the last incarnation of the google homepage. What's going on?? This is super-frustrating, and new since I upgraded to FF 6.

This happens to me too. a quick workaround is to open link in new tab and it opens the proper page.

If malware is suspected, there should be no need to use paid for tools to remove it.
