Some kind of virus has gotten into my browser that will cause it to go automatically to a new, unwanted webpage after a few seconds.
Sometimes when I click on a link, the browser will go to that page for about a second and then will automatically go to a new (unwanted) webpage. When I use Firefox's "go back" button, a splash screen will appear asking me if I really want to leave that page. Sometimes it will take me back and stay and at others it will go revert to the new, unwanted page. The unwanted page is different each time and generally look to be real pages but random. Also, sometimes when I click a link, Firefox opens a second browser window with a random page. This happens several times throughout the day. It will happen both with some of my standard bookmarks that I use all the time and also with new urls. Most of the time it seems to be random but does happen more with some links than others. Is this a new virus?

Do a malware check with some malware scan 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 the database before doing a scan.

I have this also. It happens in both Chrome and Mozilla. I tried to get McAfee Virus removal to find the virus, but they could not. Still happening.
I tried Malwarebytes anti-malware and it removed a bunch of tracking cookies. This did not help the problem.
Then run the other programs that cor-el recommended.
I ran Norton 2011 antivirus. I did not work at all.
The recommendation posted by cor-el was to run 5 different anti-Malware programs, yet you are running anti-virus applications.
They ain't the same thing.
They do not work either, I tried them.
