I seem to be plagued by some form of malware that is redirecting me to web pages during searches. EX: When I search on google, and click a result, I am then turned to some random malicious page.
I know this happened because for the first time in years, I left my computer unprotected. This is a brand new machine, just installed a week ago. Avast wasn't running correctly, so I kept putting off fixing it. Now I seem to be infected... -sigh-
Avast is now working, however. I've follow the 8-step instructions and obtained logs.
The problem isn't solved after following the 8-step, but I did nail a few nasties in the process.
Thanks for your time.
