Some time ago, Google grabbed it and redirected it, every time I hit the “Home” icon for Dogpile it would go to GOOGLE search page. Somehow it cleared itself up. So far Dogpile is still my home page search.

I doubt if Google would be involved in anything nefarious. It was probably a virus that redirected your browser.
I had a similar situation six months ago and none of the anti-virus/malware programs could find the problem.
Turns out the virus had hi-jacked my new router that I had installed just days before ... and forgot to change the default admin ID and password.
A physical reset on the router ended the problem.
