Firefox is redirecting to sites other than the one clicked on.
When clicking on sites found from searching using the search bar (not address bar) you are redirected to a site other than the one one you clicked on. This does not happen on every site found but on many of them. However, in all cases where it does happen the site redirected to is [adlinksearch.com]. I use PC Tools Spyware Doctor and it has found no Malware issues. I can go to the website if I put it's address in the address bar. I do use the igoogle search bar. Please help with this issue as it is very annoying.
This happened

I have the same problem --- redirection from Yahoo to adlinksearch.com. Please help. I also use PC Tools Spyware Doctor and Malwarebytes Anti-Malware without success in resolving this issue.
I have downloaded and run Malwarebytes, Spyware Terminator and Spybot Search & Destroy. I still have the problem of Firefox redirecting to adlinksearch.com. Dennis Dietrich
