Hello,

I am having a problem that looks like it was solved before, but I was not sure if I should just follow the aforementioned recommendations.

I just firefox, and lately, when I click on search results from google, I get redirected to false websites- not always, just most of the time.

My computer also got the perfect defender on it now:(

Can someone help me remove these, and guard against the threat in the future?

I think they may have gotten caught whilst looking for streaming videos:( d'oh!

thanks for the help!
