Why is my browser getting redircted to "Search Results for (insert search term selected)" whenever I google a topic?
After I use Google or other search engine and click on the desired search result, I get redirected to "Search Results for (the hyper link I selected)". Very frustrating. Here's the address: http://63.209.69.107/search/web/ that came up most recently.

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.

Cor -el: Thanks for the reply. I downloaded new anti-malware, and it worked for a day or so, but it's back at it. Only seems to happen in Firefox not Google Chrome??
