Hello. When I do a search and try to open one of the results with "open in a new window" it does not go to that page at all. For example I do a search for 'Honda', then right-click the result, for the main honda page, to open in a new window... I will get something like bizrate, lycos, ebay, pricequotes but they will be about Honda, like ebay results for 'Honda'.... Something else odd is if I try that same result twice I get the same incorrect page but on the third try I will get the Honda main page.... I made sure and got the latest definitions for spybot, ewido, lavasoft's adaware, and windows defender and ran them a few times. I did find some things and got rid of them but I still keep getting this problem with the search engines. Any help would be greatly appreciated, thank you.
