Hello,

Whenever I seach with goggle if I click the link it gets diverted to ramdom sites. Normally other unheard of search engines sometimes to hard core filth. Any ideas how I can stop being diverted? I mean the filths ok, the seach engines are almost unbearable.

Best regards,

Colin,...

I would recommend downloading the latest build of the following anti-malware tools and scanning your system first:

1) Spybot - Search & Destroy

2) AdAware Personal Edition

3) Windows Defender

You can get the first two apps from here and Windows Defender from Microsofts website.

Also be sure to d/l the latest OS patches and such.

Yes, goggle is an actual malware site, they count on users mis-typing google all the time which does indeed happen.

Check out this real GOOGLE SEARCH about this site and note all the others commenting on the same thing wink
