I have a problem here. When i go to google, i type in my search like normal. Say i typed in powder-mag, powder mag would come up under the search results, but when i click the link for it, it always takes me to another search engine site, like lycos, or some un-popular search service. It does this for every result that comes up. Same with yahoo and msn search engines. Anyone know how to fix this?

I just noticed it doing this today. And i think its just a problem with my computer, cause i asked my friend if it worked for him and he said it does.

sounds like you might have gotten some adware in there if all search engines are being poached. what is the site it directs you to?
