How do I stop my search engine from being "hijacked"? I can no longer get direct access to websites.

When I open my Mozilla Start Page, I type in a name or website I am searching and Google provides the usual list of websites. When I click on the website I want it won't open. Instead I keep getting redirected instead of going directly to the website. How I can I stop this from happening?

I would normally wonder if this was a malware problem, but apparently a day or so ago there may have been dns problems relating to google.

Have a look at the thread Search bar causes browser to be hijacked

That gives suggestion for

  • re-seting the search bar
  • sorting out malware
  • and if necessary considering changing DNS
