So this only started to happen recently where I would want to go to a site and the page goes blank and says that it is "waiting for www.google-analytics.com". It is then just stuck on that loading screen. I'm not good with computers or any of the technical stuff, but I have been searching for a solution and can't find one. Could someone please help me?
Inactive "Waiting for www.google-analytics.com..." pages won't load on my Firefox

You are misspelling this- right? gugle-analytics I don't think the analytics is a matter of malware. It appears that it can be used in a business environment to track traffic on a web site.
On the other hand, if you are using the Google search and are being redirected to a page other than what you requested, that could be caused by malware.
If you would like us to check the system for malware, please follow the steps in the Preliminary Virus and Malware Removal thread HERE.
When you have finished, leave the logs for review in your next reply .
Please do not use any other cleaning programs or scans while I'm helping you, unless I direct you to. Do not use a Registry cleaner or make any changes in the Registry.

No, its actually spelled "gugle" which is why I'm a little worried. [When I click a link, a separate window opens with "results.gugle.com" in the web address bar] As for the 8-step removal instructions, I have a question about step 4. How do I know if my operating system is Windows 7 64-bit or not?

Lots of complaints about this>gugle
Most of the site that come up using the search string "results.gugle.com" were low rated sites. The few others I checked indicated this was mostly in Firefox and many were from the Macs.
A search for just the word "gugle" found this:
My thought on this would be why would you need a search widget in a search engine!
To find out if your computer is running 32-bit or 64-bit Windows, do the following
1. Open System by clicking the Start button Picture of the Start button, clicking Control Panel, clicking System and Maintenance, and then clicking System.
2. Under System, you can view the system type.

Ok, I think I've completed the 8-steps correctly (hopefully). Thanks again for doing this!

Sorry- didn't realize you have a 64bti OS. Run this instead:
- Download OTL from either of the links below and save it to your desktop.
Link 1
Link 2
- Double click the OTL icon to run it.
- The opened console will resemble this:
- Set Output at the top to Minimal Output.
- Check the boxes beside LOP Check and Purity Check.
- Copy the entries in the Codebox below> Paste in the Custom Scan box.
Code:netsvcs %SYSTEMDRIVE%\*.exe /md5start eventlog.dll scecli.dll netlogon.dll cngaudit.dll sceclt.dll ntelogon.dll logevent.dll iaStor.sys nvstor.sys atapi.sys IdeChnDr.sys viasraid.sys AGP440.sys vaxscsi.sys nvatabus.sys viamraid.sys nvata.sys nvgts.sys iastorv.sys ViPrt.sys eNetHook.dll ahcix86.sys KR10N.sys nvstor32.sys ahcix86s.sys nvrd32.sys symmpi.sys adp3132.sys mv61xx.sys /md5stop %systemroot%\*. /mp /s %systemroot%\system32\*.dll /lockedfiles %systemroot%\Tasks\*.job /lockedfiles %systemroot%\system32\drivers\*.sys /lockedfiles %systemroot%\System32\config\*.sav CREATERESTOREPOINT - Click the Quick Scan button. Do not change any settings unless otherwise told to do so. The scan wont take long.
Make sure all other windows are closed and to let it run uninterrupted. - When the scan completes, it will open two notepad windows. OTListIt.Txt and Extras.Txt. These are saved in the same location as OTL.
- Please copy (Edit->Select All, Edit->Copy) the contents of these files, one at a time, and post it with your next reply. You may need two posts to fit them all in.

I lost the thread! Please accept my apology. I must have accidentally deleted notice of your reply. It the problem still "waiting for www.google-analytics.com"? Has there been any change?
Further investigating gives this information:
1. This is most likely cause by a Firefox extension. To prevent such entries:
Add the Firefox extension AdBlockPlus: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/1865/
Then, to that, add the Easy List which is a filter for it: http://easylist.adblockplus.org/
Reboot the computer after putting both of these on.
Please run these OTL Custom Scan Fixes
Run Eset NOD32 Online AntiVirus scan HEREhttp://www.eset.eu/online-scanner
I may have to add script again but go ahead with this.

No problem, I understand that you have a lot of other people to help as well as me and that maybe some threads would get lost among so many. I haven't experienced any new problems, but I want to make sure that there isn't anything that my scanners haven't found or that I've overlooked. Attached are the logs from after running a fix on OTL, running a quick scan on OTL and the ESET log.
