Google results redirecting to ads??

[Lason]

Every once and a while I click a result from google and it will redirect me to another site. I have ran spybot and malwarebytes and it usually finds nothing. I also run AVG free edition full time.

Does this sound like something up with Google or spyware?

Do this and run it then post the results. Also, dl and run Ccleaner to flag end and delete temp files.

ran tdsskiller and nothing found on the system. Will download and run Ccleaner after work.

what browser are you using

[Lason]

ran Ccleaner this morning. Cleaned all kinds of crap and let the registry cleaner do its thing a few times too. I shut the computer down and came to work after that so I havent tested it. Its real random though, doesnt redirect everytime. And when it does redirect I can hit the back button, click the link again and it will take me to the real site everytime.

I use the new beta Firefox but have tried it on Chrome also and same issue.

Can either of you give me an example of what you were searchin for that redirected?

[Lason]

anything and everything. Like I said its very random. Next time it does it Ill post up what I searched and where it took me. I didnt use the netbook last night but my wife says no issues so far.

Do you know if you're using the default hosts and dns?

[Lason]

default as far as I know

On Firefox 4.0 I googled "credit card soft pull" and the first link was for creditboards but got redirected to this instead....

already did malware bytes and spybot.

[Tx Redneck]

Did they both come up clean? I ask this because I Googled the search term you posted, clicked the first link and went right to where it was supposed to go.

[Lason]

Yep everything comes back clean. I think I am going to boot into safemode and try again just to make sure.
