This is really upsetting as I am required to produce Google Maps results for my job. I confirmed nothing else has been installed prior to this happening. It was only the Windows update. Can you try uninstalling Chrome completely then reinstall it again to see if it corrects the problem? Welp, tried that - removed all browsing history, all passwords that were saved, cleared cache. Reinstalled and nope - still doing it. This is beginning to sounds like a browser hijack.

In reply to Andre for Directly's post on January 21, MS is setting itself up for a class action lawsuit. Nearly all virus files operate in 2 ways. Most anti-virus programs quarantine or erase the file identified by option choice; but non give you the option of replacing the identified file with the real one, then locking that file in the permissions area [ forbid erase by your log in name ].
Especially problematic if the infected file is an essential boot file. Do the same for each file encountered with a virus. This gives you time to find the initial command file that is doing the damage because it cannot initiate if the OS denies erase. Now that we have locked files that attempt to be erased and substituted, we can look for the file or files that have been composed to initiate the actions. Time stamps tell you a lot and looking for files that suddenly appear is relatively easy.
Most virus files are initiated from one of two places [ to cover all editions of windows ]. If you find, say, 2 files composed at the nearest time to the present; erase them after noting their names. Now go to the windowssystem32 directory and search again by time stamp.
Remember, the created virus files will have the same time stamp [ or damn near close ]. This gives us time to root out any master file we might have missed that was placed somewhere we are not looking. Save the file as xyz. What have we got?. All clear? Search for instances of each of these bogus files and erase them from the registry if found [ do not erase keys — just the file names themselves ]. The replaced and locked valid files [ valid ones from our mirror back up ] should be left alone as these are real files, not bogus ones.
Hopefully, you should be all clear. If, for some reason, the PC will not boot to normal windows [ because you accidentally erased an essential file ]; boot to safe mode and copy [ lock ] the files again. Immediately after realising I got a virus by running a program 2. Hope this method is of some use to you people tearing your hair out.
A user clicks a link in a web browser and it redirects to some other site or pulls up ads. What could be the reason and what can be done? The reasons could be malware, options unintentionally selected somehow during surfing, the browser itself because of default options or the websites with legal redirects.
Unfortunately, remedies tried may cause even worse problems. Registry repairs may force re-install of the OS with all the options and updates, upgrades, drivers, registrations gone.
Another reason for good back-ups! And many programs, especially AIO types may cause more harm than good with so many options and potential to wreak havoc. Last time I had a malware infection was in However, I get requests from friends for this problem and manual remedies have almost always been good enough. Some of the items to be checked manually are: Running processes and system parameters. Internet and browser options; including browsing and security settings, selected DNS servers, search assistants, geolocation and other junk, website redirect permits, new pages, etc.
Registry Modifications by malware or permitted software, registry areas to be investigated are actually not that much, just some familiarity is needed.
DNS Servers, sometimes infected by malware themselves, although rare. Note that none of the anti-malware products would indicate most of these items, except some optimization software and even a re-install of the OS may not work.
I have a similar problem. My problem is little bit different. Please help me ,it also slows down my laptop. Try following the instructions in this article How do I remove PUPs, foistware, drive-bys, toolbars, and other annoying things I never wanted?

I have not been active on it for some time. When I try to open my blog page from google sites, the pages opens momentarily and then some ad page appears. How do I fix this? After installing Kaspersky Pure 3. This is a new issue and very annoying. I never changed my cookie acceptance settings and wonder if Kaspersky needs a Google certificate installed to function properly. Uninstall Kaspersky and see if the problem goes away. If it does, then contact Kaspersky support.
I have this problem for many years now, I have asked this question on the Apple support forum but some idividual keeps deleting some of my postings. Here is the link :. I set my default URL to Yahoo.

Thank You Leo. Thanks for pointing that out. I removed the link from the comment that was made in , as well as removing the link from your post — since it was obscured by a bitly redirect.
How can you determine if its a website that has the issue and not your browser? This is what I suspect since I only get redirected when visiting a specific site. Is there a test that can be run to confirm this? The fact that it happens on only one website is a pretty good clue.
Another thing to try is use a different browser and see what happens when you go to that same site.
