No matter what I search for with google, I will get results that show legitimate “headlines”, but the link is a fake anti-virus site that tries to snooker you into buying their malware.
And it isn’t just a few links - every single link in my search results is a fake anti-virus site.
So - I’m switching my search engine, and trying to figure out where to go from here.
Anyone out there aware of this problem and how to fix it?
That’s microsoft. They gave me 495 virus when I hit the update button; so I don’t go there anymore.
It could be your provider to or your registry. Usually, your antivirus dingy will tell you if you have a virus.
I know, my comcast.net deserves Loser of the Year award.

My brother had that recently ("Anti-Virus 2008" or similar)....the latest version of "SpyBot S & D" or better yet "SuperAntiSpyware" can get rid of it. It is a toughie!
