Ad sites are popping up when I click on a link after a Google search in toolbar
When I do a search in the Google search window in the toolbar I get search results, but when I click on the links, instead of being taken to the site the link indicated, I get taken to a parasitical ad site like infomash.com or findstuff.com (there are several others). I can't get to the site of the link I clicked on. This does not occur when I go to www.google.com and do a search.

You need to scan your system for malware. To scan for malware, install, update and run these programs in this order. They are all free for personal use, but some have limited functionality in their "free mode", but the features you'll miss are not really needed to find and remove the problem you have. Remember that not all programs detect the same malware!
