Computer Whizs and Such...

Postby southernmallard » Thu Mar 08, 2012 11:52 pm

Need some help. Everytime I try to google something and click a link, I end up at some other bs site that has absolutely nothing to do with my original link. Normally, it takes me to some medical jobs website or something. I would google this fix, but...it doesn't help when I cant click a link.

I've run Malware Bytes and Norton to no avail...
