The_Fray Posted December 1, 2007 Share Posted December 1, 2007 Ok i have to tell you guys that I am basically a noob at computers :oops: . I know what I need to know but other than that, I am lost. So recently while browsing sites, I believe i got some spyware/virus or some sort of add on on to my computer. Well basically whenever I am searching something on a search engine, whenever i click on the search results, randomly the browser redirects me to a site named http://www.favorite.com (dont click). Anybody share the same problem with me, or know how to solve this problem. Please tell me. I have tried scanning using AVG and Spybot, but nothing seems to work. Can anybody tell me if I am doing something wrong? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
das1330 Posted December 1, 2007 Share Posted December 1, 2007 Well, you definitely have some form of malware on your computer. Try downloading Avast! Antivirus and running it. In addition. you should also download and run Ad-aware SE personal. Spybot catches a lot of things, but most people recommend you use both spybot and ad aware to catch everything. As far as AVG goes, I have always used Avast! so I cannot comment on its effectiveness. Whatever it is, these programs should take care of it.
