    Default Google problem, updates etc

    First off i would like to say hi to everyone

    Ok, here is my problem.. Everytime i search for something on Google and click on a link i get redirected to some random site, sometimes some random **** site or sometimes a search engine. I have looked around some sites and found that alot of people had this problem but mostly around 2006 and havnt found anyone with this problem around this date. i have tried to follow some solutions they have like Hijackthis, and other programms they said to download but sometimes i cant get on the sites its like im beeing blocked. for example when i try and access trendmicro.com on internet explorer i get this;

    Insecure Internet activity. Threat of virus attack
    Due to insecure Internet browsing your PC can easily get infected with viruses, worms and trojans without your knowledge, and that can lead to system slowdown, freezes and crashes.
    Also insecure Internet activity can result in revealing your personal information.
    To get full advanced real-time protection for PC and Internet activity, register Antivirus Pro 2009.
    We recommend you to protect your PC now and continue safe Internet browsing.

    Continue to this website unprotected (not recommended).

    When i try access it on Firefox i get;

    Problem loading page.

    Another problem is i am running Avast and Ad-Aware, yet i cant connect to the servers to update, which i know they are out of date.

    Any advice or solutions would be great.

    Thanks in advance

    Default Re: Google problem, updates etc

    Can you get someone to download Malwarebyte's Antimalware and save it on to a flash drive. Then extract it and install it on your PC and run a quick scan. That should get rid of Antivirus Pro 2009 and hopefully allow you to update the program and then run a full scan.
    http://www.malwarebytes.org/mbam.php . It's a free program unless you want real-time scanning.
