Hello, so i've been having this problem for a few days.
I ran ThreatFire from PC Tools, that found nothing. I also ran the PcTools Antivirus, that found nothing.
I had Malwarebytes but for some reason it will not load up on my computer anymore. I uninstalled it and then re-installed still won't work.
I then ran Ccleaner a few times.
I downloaded Hijack this and ran it, heres the report:
