Google takes a long time to display results

[bg2875]

Google takes a long time to display results, sometimes does not display any results at all. I tried installing malawarebytes but it terminates as soon as it starts running. Some of the websites have a google search box. That search also gets redirected sometimes to ad pages instead of actual links.

I am using Firefox 3.5 on Windows XP media center.

Please help me resolve this issue.

Try performing an XP restore to an earlier time

Thanks. Tried that but it did not work. Let me know if I need to post any logs, and if possible, how to create those logs.
