Here's the scoop...
I go to Google, and search for something, anything. When I get the search results and click on the link, I am redirected to dumb false advertising websites...all the time!
ie: I search for cheese on Google. The second result is cheese.com, so I click on that link and I am redirected to a completely unrelated advertising site!
This happens no matter what I search for!!! HELP!!!
Here's what I have done...
1. I have updated and scanned with AVG
2. I have run Spybot S&D
3. I have run Hijack This
NOthing has worked so far!
Here's the HJT log...
