Hey is anyone else having an issue with Google redirecting you to different pages than the one you clicked on...it just keep jumping to other pages..very frustrating...I tried Ad aware but couldn't delete tracker cookies...AVG virus scan as well....Any ideas? I searched on google and it seems other people have been hijacked too...what's the deal?
 
why dont you try hijackthis if u don't know what that is then consult the big G... oh wait You cant
 
I highly doubt it has anything to do with google, im sure you just have a virus
 
There's a new facebook virus that does this.

It's not google, it's a page that look like google and it's set as home page.
Ar the symptoms this?
You can't use taskmanager, you can't edit regedit?

If yes, rebot your computer in safe mode install search and destroy and your done.Do this if you have other virus too
 
Sounds like you have a dns hijacker. I had this too recently but I don't know where I got it from. Unfortunately, I was never able to remove it and I had to end up re-formatting.
You can read more about it here:

I had this same problem, the Trojan was on the router. I bet you didn't password protect your router :) . Well I tried everything, ran all my programs with system restore off. I tried everything until I disconnected my computer from the internet and ran the scans and there was no virus! So I plugged it back in and there it was the stinky DNS Trojan. I bought a new router and it fixed the problem. Make sure you password protect this one if you didn't before.

Hope this helps.
