What has changed with Yahoo search? When I click on a legitimate site, some shopping sites, etc. come up?

Question

This has just started in the past couple of weeks. I have contacted Norton and run anti-virus and anti-spyware programs to no avail. They show no infections - but I still am having to click on a legitimate site at least 3 times before it comes up - after I have to see the other garbage sites. I am sick of this. What has changed and how do I fix it?

Answer 1

Something is hijacking your browser.  Antivirus and antispyware do not fix everything.  I suggest reinstalling windows and being more careful with what you download.  If you dont reinstall, you can never be sure someone is not stealing your info or using your computer for crime.

Answer 2
