Answer:
You have a virus. It happened to me a few times. What has worked for me is "malwarebytes". It is an anti virus/anti malware program that usually can find and remove the problem. You can also try going into the control panel then into "add/remove programs". When the list populates, look for anything that doesn't look "right". A lot of times the virus is so bad that it knows you are trying to remove it and won't let anti virus software load. Then you need a repair man who may need to save your data and wipe the machine and re-install windows. BeijOkinhaS

Having a site re-directed elsewhere is called 'click-jacking' and it is one of the more obvious signs of malware. It can be extremely difficult to remove! More information can be found here for the 'Google Re-Direct' virus. It requires a special removal tool since it disables almost all other security programs. http://www.squidoo.com/google-redirect-virus-removal-tips http://hubpages.com/hub/Google-Redirect-Virus-Removal You need to do a Deep Scan with all your malware programs, in 'Safe Mode with Networking'. To get to Safe Mode, re-boot and click F8 repeatedly when the screen first comes up until a dark screen with white writing appears. Use the arrow keys and Enter to get to Safe mode. Some malware disables your security protection, which is why you should scan in Safe Mode. First, run your anti-virus, then re-boot and run each other anti-malware program separately in Safe Mode - run more than one, re-booting each time. Malwarebytes Anti-Malware (MBAM) and Trend Micro's Housecall on-line scan are highly respected and free. http://www.malwarebytes.org/mbam.php http://housecall.trendmicro.com
