Everytime I use google or yahoo, the searches come back correct, but when I click on the link I will get redirected to some random site. Some of these sites have the same layout but different content.
I have used malwarebytes, superantispyware, spybot and ad-aware. While they did get rid of some viruses the search engine hijack still remains. I used the scanners in both safe mode and normal mode.
I have also notice that my local hosts file has alot of random web addresses in it, but I don't know what to delete.
So a summery of the issues:
Searches in google come back correct, but if I click on any one of the search results link, it will take be to a random site. Though if I click it a second time, it will take me to the correct site.
Internet seems slow, though it was never that fast.
Thank you in advance
