My searches keep being redirected by a site called www.ylwbli. Incredibbly annoying... may have to switch search engines.
It leads me to various commercial sites. Have to cut and paste the actual web address or it redirects (even sometimes to Bing!). Have tried installing your adblock software. Didn't help.

This type of behaviour can be caused by malware. Try running several malware scanners. It is best to run several as each will pick up things that the others miss. Some scanners you can try are:
- Malwarebytes - http://www.malwarebytes.org/mbam.php
- SuperAntiSpyware - http://www.superantispyware.com
- Ad-Aware - http://www.lavasoft.com/products/ad_aware_free.php
- Windows Defender - http://www.microsoft.com/windows/products/winfamily/defender/default.mspx
- Spybot S&D - http://www.safer-networking.org/en/home/index.html
Thanks Tony, I'll give the malware a try. At the moment I'm having to cut and paste web addresses - what a pain!
YES! The malware seems to have worked. How often should I run it? (I use McAfee and thought they would have had it covered.) Cheers
