I keep geting redirected when i search is it spyware?


If i type it directly into the address bar it works fine.
When ever i search for something for instance if i search in yahoo for Google and it gives me links i click on Google.com and it redirects me to a different place every time, search sites, eBay, porn sites you name it I've been there. If i type it directly into the address bar it works fine.
this is what the address bar says when it redirects me
rc10.overture.com
I wouldn't click that if i where you...
is there a free way to get rid of this thing T_T

yeah it sounds like spyware.

You have a search hijacker.

I would suggest that you Run both of these on-line scans. Both are free and excellent at detecting and removing malware free of charge. There is no need to un-install any of your current protections before using these.

1. Scan for virus, worms, dialers, etc. and remove (free online scan, no installed program) with BitDefender's Online Scanner. Press scan online on the left.

2. Scan for trojans, adware, cookies, and spyware and remove (free online scan, no installed program) with Ewido Online Scanner ( now known as AVG Anti-Spyware). This is NOT the same as AVG Anti-Virus. Press "Scan your computer now online and clean it for free!" on the left.

These scans will take quite a bit of time. The time is necessary to clean-up an infected computer.

Good luck.
