Answer 1

You have a virus, adware, malware on your PC, go to www.grisoft.com and down load their award winning antivirus 8 free software, it will clear all the bad stuff from your PC. And it really is free, just as good as the paid version

Answer 2

just to say spybot search and destroy 1.6.0 is probably the best software to try. i would also start your pc in safe mode and run it from there (hold f8 on starting computer). Also you could try RegCure. it isnt free but at least it works

Answer 3

You have spyware call hijackers.

Spybot search and destroy is a free anti-spyware tool that that contains many features to immunize your computer against some spyware.

Install spybot and scan, remove the spywares.

Enable advance features - Spybot host file locking is a tool which locks the hosts file to prevent unauthorized changes.

Locking the hosts file will prevent most hosts hijackers (even unknown) from doing harm;

Locking the IE settings will prevent other users of your computer to change your preferences.

It sounds like you`ve had your browser hijacked, it happened to me. I kept getting redirected to various retail sites, i ended up swapping my browser to Firefox, it`s much quicker and i`ve had no problems for over a year now. check this out,  http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/For+...

Answer 8

First thing is if you're using Internet Explorer as your browser, immediately download and install Firefox as it's much safer and it's free:

It'd be a good idea to get anti-spyware and anti-virus software. There are plenty of options, many of them are free. I'm using free AVG software which can be found at:

Good luck.

Answer 9

Go to http://download.com and you can get free antivirus software there, you can read reviews on each one and choose which one you want, then download it and do a scan, it will tell you if there is a virus in your computer, it will contain it and ask you what you want to do, which is usually to delete it, i use PC Tools software and i can recommend that.

Answer 10

Yes, you have an infection

You need to download a number of things and install them.

.) AVG FREE Anti virus

http://free.avg.com/

.) Spybot search and destroy

http://searchdestroydownload.com/?

.) Zone Alarm Firewall

http://www.zonealarm.com/store/content/c...

All are free. I included the links because you can't use google.

Finally, I assume you are using explorer. Well don't

Get Firefox instead...

http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/

All the best with that!
