How to fix google redirect with Firefox.....IE works fine.....Stopzilla did NOT work
Google has started redirect and jump to the wrong web sites after a search......when trying to go to search results. Tried Stopzilla and Malwarebytes and boot scans with Avast....Still the same...... All found and destroyed many items .... Sad to say IE 8 works fine

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

If you can't fix it with the above listed scanners then you need to ask advise on one of the forums that specialize in malware removal mentioned in the Popups_not_blocked article.
Mozilla Firefox offers an Add-On to cure this problem
SOLVED Even after malware removal still had the problem......mozilla support chat had me check some setting and found that the malware reset mozilla to connect to a proxy server.....set to no proxy to finish the repair!!!!!!!!!!
THANKS!!!
I fixed this problem by removing temporary Java files and programs. In Windows 7 - Start -> Control Panel -> Programs -> Java -> Temporary Internet Files (bottom pane of first panel) -> Settings -> Delete Files -> OK. No more redirect problems. YMMV, but it's a harmless thing to try as a quick first step. Takes about 30 seconds.
