After attempting to eradicate this problem for several months now I stumbled upon the whatthetech website and hopefully this can correct a problem which has been bugging me for some time now. My primary browser is Firefox and the problem is that my browser gets directed to various websites whenever I click on a link in Google, misc. websites, it doesn't seem to matter. It usually takes me to a auto insurance, loan refinancing, or a site called spyware-secure.com that wants to perform a scan on my system. Occasionally the browser is redirected when I'm not even sitting at the computer! The following is my Hijack this log that I ran this afternoon.
