Re: Hijack - Search Engine Results

you probably have spyware of some sort installed on your computer.

try using the Lavasoft Spyware scanner to remove it: http://www.lavasoftusa.com/

Re: Hijack - Search Engine Results

try looking into your hosts file, it could be a corrupted hosts file that someone hijacked and that's why you're getting redirected.

Re: Hijack - Search Engine Results

thanks for your help!

I looked into my hosts file. I have never looked into it before. I downloaded one and installed it. The problem still persists.

I did notice in trying out the new hosts file that the results page from yahoo lists foreign urls when I mouse over the links. here is an example:

http://rds.yahoo.com/_ylt=A0oGkjELfp...ntabraves.com/

from a yahoo search on "braves"

On google search, the mouse over on results shows the right url, but when you click on it, it goes through a handful of referral sites and ends up on a random portal. I did find this url in a chain of referrals:

http://clicks.smartbizsearch.com/xtr...pQsk1LJ26sDLAq

any ideas?

thanks again for sticking with me
